***********************************************************ILOTA recognizes the impact of Covid-19 (coronavirus) on individuals, families, the nation, and our world as we all adapt to these uncertain times. OT Practitioners across the state of Illinois have all been challenged to remain healthy and ensure safe practices to prevent further community spread. As many of you have worked in various sectors or continue to be on the front lines, the influx of executive orders at the local, state, and national level can cause confusion as to what steps to take next. Of the utmost importance is to ensure your safety and that of your family, while following orders to reduce and prevent community spread. Please see the COVID-19 Resources section for more information. ******************************************************** Begin Here: Fostering a Culture of Occupational Justice This is a reminder that ILOTA is proud to be co-sponsoring the webinar, “Begin Here: Fostering a Culture of Occupational Justice”, along with the Indiana, Texas, Ohio, and California OT Associations.
