Dear Colleagues,
I am writing to enlist your help. As many of you are aware, our profession will be challenged in the next few years as the aging population will increasingly need our services, and more and more of our own ranks will be retiring. The Academy has formed a Joint Committee with our other sister organizations and charged the committee with increasing the number of applicants at CAAHEP schools. In this digital age, our first priority is the creation of a web site for potential students. We would like to provide a list of ABC practitioners as contacts throughout the country for those interested in observing the field. High school students would be encouraged to contact you about what it's like to be in O & P. If you would be willing to help, by having your name, city, state, and email address listed, please contact me The Academy. <Email Address Redacted>
Thank You,
Wendy Beattie, CPO, FAAOP
Chairman Joint Committee on O & P Awareness
American Academy of Orthotists and Prosthetists
