Hi Ben, I saw your post. Great to hear about the walking. We are conducting a study to learn from people on the spectrum about their experience of leisure. If you are interested, let me know.

Wow! I knew our Jefferson family was busy last week at the conference, but I did not realize how busy. How many presentations were delivered at AOTA Inspire 2025 by the Jefferson Department of OT Faculty, Students, and Alumni? Take a look!

Gratitude! Post-conference, with a bit of time to rest and sleep, I feel immense gratitude for the faculty and staff who helped with the Jefferson booth in the exhibit hall. We were busy! Thanks again, everyone! The booth would not have been a success without you all.

Celebrating our future OT scholars! At the Jefferson Alumni Reception | Slagle Lecture Reception, I had the pleasure of meeting (in person!) some of our current PPOTD students. As one of them said, it was truly 'inspiring' to be at AOTA Inspire (pun intended) with all of them.

The butterfly effect! Meeting many of our alumni who are still using their coaching skills years later was so rewarding. So many settings.

Learning to infuse coaching in OT practice is transformative.

Jefferson PPOTD faculty (Dr. Pamela Talero-Cabrejo) and student Nandita Singh sneaking in an in-person meeting at AOTA Inspire. It was wonderful to see the doctoral project that emanated from these two women's collaboration.
