We are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion

AOTA is committed to building a more inclusive profession that is strengthened by the diversity and engagement of its practitioners and is equipped to address the needs of clients of all backgrounds and identities. DEI is woven into all AOTA spaces and thus, reflected throughout our website.
