Occupational therapy values 28 April 2015

As a profession, we have some really important values. Things like diversity, empowerment, creativity, independence, equity and so on. We'd like you to share your values in a practical way by donating to our GiveaLittle fund to raise money for people to attend the APOTC 2015 in Rotorua this year.

We've had applications from as far afield as Bangladesh, where the basic salary for a new graduate is a mere $4000 - which is as much as the accommodation, airfares and registration to the congress!

We'd love to be able to help people who can't afford to come to NZ, come and share their diversity and values with us - will you help?
