I was excited to attend the ASHT inaugural Pediatric Specialty Day as opportunities to learn and network with others in our specialized field are limited. The event was beyond my expectations. It was a perfect balance of practice updates, research, techniques, and case studies - all taught by experienced and engaging speakers. I especially appreciated the evidence-based approach presented by the morning speakers and the practical components offered in the afternoon instructional courses. I highly recommend this course to any therapist looking to learn the latest trends in pediatric hands and build connections within our community of practice.

Attending the annual meeting of the American Society of Hand Therapists has been a deeply enriching experience, both professionally and personally. The opportunity to connect with colleagues from across the country—and around the world—has expanded my network and sparked meaningful collaborations. The educational programming offers an ideal balance of advanced science, emerging research, and practical clinical review, making it relevant and impactful no matter where you are in your career. I always leave energized by the innovative content, inspired by the presentations, and excited to bring new knowledge back to my practice. Engaging with vendors provides valuable insights into the latest tools and technologies shaping the future of hand therapy. Being involved with the society and its ongoing work has deepened my sense of connection to the profession and strengthened my commitment to its advancement.

Pediatric Specialty Day is a unique opportunity for clinicians across the country who care for the pediatric hand to meet and collaborate in one space. This program offers a rare platform for clinicians to share insight, explore evidence-based practice, exchange creative treatment approaches and deepen our network of experts. For therapists dedicated to enhancing the lives of children and their families, Pediatric Specialty Day offers inspiration, practical learning, and meaningful connections. Whether you’re looking to deepen your clinical skills, stay current with the latest research, or simply connect with others who “get it,” you’ll find immense value here.
