Impact Your Future Through Advocacy.

The Flash Action Strategy is an annual student-led campaign that occurs in September.  Students are the future of our profession, and their voices are crucial in our advocacy efforts today.  Led by PT and PTA students APTA's Flash Action Strategy unites our community around key issues impacting our profession and the people we serve.  Since its inception in 2013, Flash Action Strategy has resulted in students sending over 91,000 letter to Congress.  Join us for this annual event every September and make your voice heard! 

How does it work?

PT and PTA students from across the country engage on social media to raise awareness and contact their members of Congress.  There will be sample social media posts you can use and a template letter to Congress you can send directly to your legislators.
