Activity Therapy Conference -- and Concept
Did you know that the Michigan Activity Therapy Conference has been going on for 52 years? I must admit that I knew nothing about it until I saw it listed in the TR Directory Newsletter.
I am intrigued by the idea of an activity therapy conference involving not only RTs but therapists from sister professions such as occupational therapy, music therapy, and art therapy. What a great concept.
It makes my mind spin to think of the possibilities that could result if RTs, OTs, MTs and art therapists formed a professional organization. How about the American Activity Therapy Association (AATA)?
When I first entered the profession, RT was a department in the Activity Therapy Service of the state hospital, along with music therapy, occupational therapy, and vocational/industrial therapy. I've always thought that the concept of activity therapy was a good one.
What do you think? Any comments?
