Mahoney to be inducted into AOTA’s Roster of Fellows

Congratulations to Wanda Mahoney, PhD, OTR/L, who will receive the American Occupational Therapy Association’s (AOTA’s) Roster of Fellows Award at AOTA’s Inspire 2023 Annual Conference & Expo in Kansas City, Mo. The Roster of Fellows recognizes occupational therapists who through their knowledge, expertise, leadership, advocacy, and/or guidance have made a significant contribution over time to the profession with a measured impact on consumers of occupational therapy services and/or members of the Association. Mahoney is being recognized for her contributions to “Promoting Learning Through History and Clients' Perspectives.”

“I’m incredibly excited and honored by this recognition. I love learning and hope that I foster that enthusiasm among students, colleagues, and others. I appreciate that I’ve been able to collaborate with others to contribute to occupational therapy history, education, and inclusive practices with people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and I look forward to continuing this work,” Mahoney says.

The Roster of Fellows Award will be conferred during the Awards Ceremony on Saturday, April 22, from 4:30 – 5:30 p.m. CST at the Kansas City Convention Center. The ceremony is open to the public and conference attendance is not required. For more information on the conference, please visit AOTA’s conference website.
