ABOUT US   

The Maine Occupational Therapy Association (MEOTA) is actively working to support and advance the profession of Occupational Therapy in Maine. This includes working to protect the field of OT from external threats, providing opportunities for learning and professional collaboration through CEUs, providing resources supporting evidence-based practice for clinical reference, as well as fundraisers to help support our lobbyist and keep our professional identity in the state of Maine. 

As recently as January 2024, cuts to healthcare reimbursement models have directly impacted the OT role, imagine what would happen if reimbursement for our services completely disappeared. Or, if other healthcare professionals began doing the work OT practitioners are highly qualified to perform? 

As professionals it is our duty to commit to lifelong learning and advocacy. Participating in and supporting our professional organizations is a basic responsibility to ensure that we are prepared to provide the best care for our clients as well as ensure that OT remains a strong, viable profession for those who will need our services in the future. Your membership to the Maine OT Association supports the following efforts:

·       Funding for a lobbyist to monitor, assist with, and advocate for legislative efforts in Augusta, ensuring Occupational Therapy is included and represented in key legislation;

·       Opportunities for continuing education, including a spring and fall conference.  

·       Providing opportunities for networking with other OT professionals through regional workshops; 

·       And creating opportunities for leadership development.
