Big news for occupational therapy in Kansas!!!

The OT Compact is opening doors for greater mobility and access to care across state lines. For practitioners in Kansas, this means expanded opportunities to practice in participating states—while helping more clients receive the services they need, when and where they need them most.

This is a major win for our profession, strengthening collaboration, supporting workforce flexibility, and improving access to occupational therapy services nationwide.

Let’s keep the momentum going as we work together to advance OT in Kansas and beyond! 💙
