I will be a panelist discussing legislation in Maryland. This includes our Lobby Night event, working with a lobbyist and our bill review committee. We will also discuss the impact of Maryland budget legislation on OT board and licensure fees and how we were able to advocate.

Hopefully these will be informative to all in attendance and no one will be disappointed with content/delivery/my height/ etc. Saying that I am nervous might be putting it mildly, but hopefully it will all go well.
