The Occupational Therapy Licensure Compact is an ongoing effort nationwide to establish interstate licensure. During the compact creation process, public comments are called for to guide the Occupational Therapy Compact Commission (OTCC) with drafting rules and bylaws. As of now, the OTCC has published bylaws that are open for public comments and feedback.

The Executive and Rules Committees have drafted and approved the updated OTCC Bylaws. There are actionable next steps for you to take:

1.    The draft Bylaws are posted on the Alabama State Board of Occupational Therapy’s home page for the public comment period until January 26, 2024.

2.     A link to the draft Bylaws is on the OTCompact.org home page.  The instructions to submit comments are on the home page and in the draft Bylaws.

3.    You are invited to review the draft Bylaws and submit your comments during the comment period.

Any questions, concerns, or comments regarding the public comment period for the Occupational Therapy Licensure Compact are to be made directly to the OTCC.
