We talked to Keaton Ray after her Ignite talk at the American Physical Therapy Association’s National Student Conclave in Portland Oregon.
Keaton talked about those things in life that make use say “Hell NO!” But, when you find one of those things that make you say “Hell Yeah!” it can take you places that you’ve never thought possible.

The House of Delegates (House) is an APTA policy-making body comprised of voting chapter delegates, non-voting delegates (the Board of Directors and section, assembly, and PTA Caucus delegates), and consultants. The number of voting chapter delegates is determined each year based on membership numbers and is an elected position at the chapter level.
The House meets annually for 3 successive days each spring, during which time delegates make decisions on issues that may have far-reaching implications for the association and for the profession of physical therapy. Business of the House follows parliamentary procedure and is conducted through the introduction of delegate-proposed motions, which may amend APTA’s bylaws, direct a course of action, articulate an association attitude on the physical therapy needs of the public or the needs of members, or describe a goal the association wishes to achieve.
