Why is Hill Day attendance limited to members?

• OTAC represents and advocates for the OT profession in Colorado so participants must be OTAC members during Hill Day to be a representative from OTAC on behalf of the OT profession in Colorado during Hill Day activities.
• OTAC membership directly supports the expense of OTAC lobbyists and OTAC's advocacy efforts.
