The pediatric special interest group (PSIG) provides educational programming for Connecticut physical therapists across pediatric practice settings including Schools, Birth to Three, Hospital Based, and Private Outpatient Clinics. Events are hosted in the evenings and on Saturdays at varying locations across the state. Connecticut’s PSIG also provides opportunities for social connections and professional networking 2-3 times a year. We work closely with the other special interest groups and the APTA CT Board of Directors to support public policy initiatives and keep our members informed regarding local practice issues.
The purpose of the Student Special Interest Group shall be to provide a means by which students, and student affiliate members, have a common interest, and because of their enrollment in a Physical Therapy (PT) or Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) school. These students may meet, confer and promote the interest of their classes and schools within the Student Special Interest Group and further develop their role as a student body within the Association.
