Leadership extends beyond our profession.

Last week, APTA Academy of Leadership and Innovation President Emily Becker, PT, DPT represented both APTA and APTA ALI at the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL) Legislative Summit in Chicago.

Emily joined healthcare leaders, policymakers, and legislative partners from across the country to strengthen relationships, elevate the role of physical therapy, and engage in conversations shaping the future of healthcare policy.

At ALI, we believe leadership means showing up where important decisions are being made, building connections across disciplines, and helping shape the future of our profession.

Thank you, Emily, for representing ALI with excellence and demonstrating what leadership in action looks like.
