PRESIDENT’S CORNER
(continued from page 65)
dent and Vice President/Education Chair,
respectively for 2011 – 2012. Elections will
be held this fall to fill these positions for
2012 – 2015. Please contact the Ortho-
paedic Section to express your interest in

At the CSM Annual Membership Meet-
ing, the Foundation for Physical erapy
announced that the Orthopaedic Section
was selected to receive the 2011 Premier
Partner in Research Award. is award
recognizes the Orthopaedic Section for its
generous and long-standing contributions
that have made a substantial difference by
supporting the Foundation and its mis-
sion of funding physical therapy research.
Since the Foundation’s inception in 1979,
the Orthopaedic Section has donated nearly
$1 million to the Foundation. In 2007,
the Orthopaedic Section made a $500,000
pledge toward the establishment of an
endowment fund to support orthopaedic
physical therapy research. e Premier
Partner in Research Award will be presented
to the Orthopaedic Section at the Founda-
tion’s Annual Dinner and Dance during
the APTA Annual Meeting and Exposition
in National Harbor, MD on June 9th. To
recognize the past contributions that prior
Section Boards have made in support of
the Foundation, all prior Orthopaedic Sec-
tion Presidents will be invited to attend the
award presentation.
In 2010 the Orthopaedic Section estab-
lished Advocacy Grants to support APTA
Chapters in advocacy efforts that are of
importance to the practice of orthopae-
dic physical therapy. In the past year, 2
grants, totaling $10,000 were provided to
the South Carolina Physical erapy Asso-
ciation in support of legislation related to
referral for profit and to the Physical er-
apy Association of Washington in support
of legislation to remove the prohibition on
spinal manipulation. For more informa-
tion on Advocacy Grants that are available
in 2011, contact the Orthopaedic Section
office at 1-800-444-3982 or by E-mail at
An objective of the 2010 – 2014 Ortho-
paedic Section Strategic Plan is to develop
a National Orthopaedic Physical erapy
Outcomes Database (NOPTOD). e
NOPTOD will allow Orthopaedic Section
members to contribute process and clini-
cal outcomes data that is collected during
the course of care provided by physical
