APTA Pennsylvania Centennial Speaker Webinar Series
Thank you to all who attended one of our Centennial webinars! We hope you enjoyed our speakers and their presentations.
Flat Mollie Competition
We all know the story of Flat Stanley, the boy who was flatted by a bulletin board and now can fold himself up into an envelope and travel anywhere in the world, but have you heard of Flat Mollie? Mary McMillian, or "Mollie" as her friends called her, is considered the Mother of Physical Therapy and was the first president of the American Women's Physical Therapeutic Association. We asked all APTA components to download and print out our Flat Mollie below and take her on their adventures (whether it be to work or on a trip!).
