MiOTA Governance
In 2001 the membership of MiOTA approved a revised structure of the association to better focus our energies and activities. Our new Mission and Vision reflect the need to address the needs of the membership and, through their volunteer activities, support the profession of OT within the state.
We now have a dual governing structure. The Executive Committee exists to run the Association, and administers its policies. The Association Assembly sets the Policy of the Association. Various committees perform the work of the association, and each is responsible to one of the members of the Executive Committee.
