Thank you KidSource and David Bise for hosting the OTA Class of 2026!

Thank you KidSource and David Bise for hosting the OTA Class of 2026!

Kidsource was proud to partner with the Baptist COTA program today!

We had a blast teaching the sensory integration lab for students in the Baptist COTA program, where they learned and participated in hands-on intervention strategies to better understand sensory processing with one of our OTs, David Bise.

Education is one of our core values, and we’re thankful for opportunities like this to share knowledge and connect with future therapists!

We’re also proud to have a long-standing relationship with the Baptist COTA program- many of their students complete clinicals with us each year, and several (like our own Tori Menzies, Nancy Shaw, Courtney Speights, April Bourg and Paige Hurst!) have gone on to join the Kidsource family. 💙
