The Flint Chapter of the Michigan Occupational Therapy Association provides clinicians with a local connection to the association at large. The chapter hosts local meetings to provide members with current topics relevant to the profession as well as disseminate information from the MiOTA governing structure.

Next meeting
TBD

One (1) professional development unit (PDU) will be awarded to active MiOTA members in attendance. The certificate will be emailed to all attendees.

Guests are always welcome to see what MiOTA is about at the local level; however, after one free visit we request that you become a member in order to continue attending the chapter meetings. We hope that you like what you see and want to join. Membership forms will be available at the meeting.
