| | Get ready, Ohio PAs! In 2026, OAPA is bringing the whole community together for one can’t-miss annual conference. Expanded learning, powerful connections, and an unforgettable experience await. Excited yet? The date and location are dropping soon...don’t miss it! |
| | OAPA thrives on member dedication and passion. Serving on the Board or as an AAPA Delegate lets you shape the profession, grow leadership skills, and make an impact. Review the Elections Manual and positions and prepare to apply. Your vision and voice can drive meaningful change. |
| | As lawmakers return to the Statehouse, OAPA will continue to engage with legislators, staff, and coalition partners to build awareness of the PA profession and ensure that our voices are heard. But advocacy is strongest when it is powered by informed, engaged members who are willing to stand behind the profession they care so deeply about. To be clear, your engagement makes a real difference. |
Top | | Oral health is closely linked with systemic illnesses such as diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. Learn strategies to support good oral health, including daily hygiene practices and healthy lifestyle habits, which can improve chronic disease management. |
| | This award honors and recognizes a PA who exemplifies the mission and values of the LBGT PA Caucus who, within the course of a one-year period, exemplified the PA profession’s philosophy of providing accessible, quality healthcare to all; demonstrated outstanding leadership, advocacy, education, and service in advancing equitable, inclusive, and affirming healthcare for LGTBQ+ individuals and communities. |
| | VAccess.org is a free, clinician-focused resource designed to support all clinicians caring for patients with rare or complicated vascular and lymphatic anomalies (or seeking evaluation for vascular and lymphatic anomalies). In addition to helpful educational documents and patient support resources, clinicians can submit an “Ask a Specialist” request to get guidance on real-world clinical questions and use the “Find a VAC” tool to find a multidisciplinary
vascular anomalies clinic in their area. Check out VAccess.org today and share it within your clinical networks. |
Top | | Know someone considering PA school? OAPA has launched a Pre-PA membership designed to support students early in their career journey. Pre-PA members receive free access to CASPA and interview prep recordings, affordable rates at OAPA events, and special discounts from industry partners, with mentorship and shadowing opportunities in development. Please share this great news with any future PAs in your life! |
| | OAPA memberships for PA students just got a major upgrade. Your membership now lasts the full length of your PA program, plus six months after graduation. Translation: no gaps, no stress, and continued access to OAPA resources, events, and benefits while you’re in school and as you’re stepping into practice. This update is all about keeping PA students supported, connected, and in the loop during the moments that matter most, right through the transition from PA-S to PA-C. Not a student member yet? Now’s the time. Join OAPA and get the extended access. |
