Thousands of students participated in the APTA Flash Action Strategy Sept. 25-26 by creating social media posts and videos, and donating to PTPAC, APTA's political action committee. APTA students raised over $2,000, and 140 programs participated in the two-day event. The top three schools to participate were Briar Cliff University, University of Toledo, and University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

Physical therapy is a transformative profession that has earned recognition on Capitol Hill.  That’s what PTPAC is all about. Together, we support bipartisan congressional champions for physical therapy issues who make a difference for our patients and our profession. Powered by individual voluntary contributions from APTA members (APTA dues cannot be used for contributions), PTPAC builds connections that make an impact. With 2024 being a critical election year, APTA students were encouraged to donate and raise awareness of PTPAC.
