RIOTA Pediatric Special Interest Group (SIG) Presents:

Bag of Tricks for School Based Therapists

Wednesday 01/15/2025

* Event is limited to 12 attendees

Location: 

Cranston Central Library Seminar Room
140 Sockanosset Cross Road, Cranston, RI

Time:  6:00 pm - 7:45 pm

Presenter:  Lucille Garcia, PP-OTD, MS, OTR/L

Objectives:  This presentation will include three topics of discussion:

1. Juggling the OTA/OTR and intradisciplinary relationships in the school setting     
2. Technology and AI strategies and tools
3. Looking at the “whole child” and the impact on school performance

The format of this meeting is to have participants join in, offer points of view and examples, share stories and treatment techniques that worked (or didn’t work) as an open discussion. There will be a facilitator but this is not a lecture style meeting. Other topics can also be introduced and discussed so come with your ideas. 

Please bring a friend, share with a colleague as this is the kickoff to a busy pediatric special interest section year! We would love to hear your ideas for future meetings and ways to support our pediatric therapist members.

* If you registered and cannot make the event, please email riota@riota.org to give us 24 hours notice.
