Scope of Practice

The importance of membership

Did you know that only 7% of Virginia OT practitioners are VOTA members? The efforts that VOTA makes support all practitioners in our state however. member driven organizations are only as effective as our membership is involved. We could do so much more with even 25% of Virginia practitioners involvement. Be a part of the change you want to see and join us today!
