Student Occupational Therapy Association (SOTA)
The Student Occupational Therapy Association (SOTA) at the University is a non-profit organization, founded at Mass General Brigham University of Health Professions by the inaugural OTD class of 2017. The purpose of SOTA is to enhance knowledge about occupational therapy as a powerful, widely recognized, science-driven, and evidence-based profession (AOTA, 2006). SOTA is a student-run organization that promotes occupational therapy through community service, public relations, fundraising, and campus activities. SOTA’s mission is to serve the community in areas related to occupational therapy, while simultaneously advancing members’ skills in areas such as professional development. SOTA provides its members the opportunity to connect with each other, faculty, and the community at large. Each SOTA also commits to the St. Catherine’s Challenge through AOTF annually.
