Amy M. Schlessman, PT, DPT, DHS is a therapist working for almost 20 years primarily in the school-based setting, promoting physical activity embedded into academics, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the use of technology in therapy, while closely working with educators, administrators, therapists, and parents. She is an assistant professor in the PT program at University of Findlay. She has conducted numerous dynamic presentations for teachers, parents and therapists regionally and nationally. She also published an activity book, “Recycle Bin Boogie: Move and Learn with Recyclables,” which combines movement and learning with common, household recyclables.

Lara Collins Barros, OTD, OTR/L has been a school-based OT for over 25 years. She discovered the CO-OP Approach while completing her OTD at NYU and has never looked back. She had the privilege to develop “A Guide for Implementation: Using the Principles of CO-OP to Frame a Top-Down Approach with School-Aged Children” with the mentorship of Dr. Helene Polatajko of ICAN CO-OP.
