Corporate Structures

The Manitoba Society of Occupational Therapists is the only organization that represents occupational therapists and the profession of occupational therapy in Manitoba.

  • to enhance the development and maintenance of liaison with other groups such as unions, regulators, educators, and provincial and national organizations.

Collaborate. Network. Contribute.

MSOT is governed by a Board of Directors elected by the members. Volunteering provides an excellent opportunity to promote the profession to the public, become involved in the community and develop skills integral to the profession. Without the time, energy and skills that our board members contribute to the association, occupational therapy would look very different in our province.

If you are interested in volunteering with MSOT or joining the Board of Directors, contact us via e-mail (msot@msot.mb.ca) to let us know your interests.

MSOT is not an organization that can support exposure of the profession to perspective students.

BY-LAWS

The MSOT By-laws are reviewed, amended and approved by the membership as required by the obligations of incorporation.
