ConnOTA Fall Conference 

Every year, we host the largest OT event in Connecticut—a day filled with new ideas, fresh energy, and meaningful connections. While the topics change to reflect the latest in the field, the value remains the same:

  • Earn CEUs from dynamic workshops and expert keynote speakers.
  • Connect with colleagues who understand your challenges and your passion.
  • Discover the latest research, innovations, and legislative advocacy updates.

Communities of Practice (CoPs)

Membership isn’t just about a single event — it’s about belonging. ConnOTA’s Communities of Practice give you a professional “home base” to share knowledge, problem-solve, and grow with peers and mentors who care about the same things you do.

  • Ongoing conversations that make practice easier and more effective.
  • A place to bring challenges and leave with evidence-based strategies.
  • CoP sessions are always free for members. Check the calendar to join the next session.

Your Voice Matters: Board Meetings 

ConnOTA is led by members, for members. Board Meetings are held virtually once a month, and all members are encouraged to attend. This is your chance to hear updates on advocacy and play an active role in shaping the future of OT in our state.

  • Meeting dates and links are always available on our Calendar.
