The TSOPP admin- Elizabeth Mansfield....everybody knows Elizabeth....has put together an awesome array of exhibitors and workshops for the upcoming August 22-23 meeting at the Richardson Hilton. Exhibitors include:Alps- sponsor of our Friday night fun, Blatchford& Sons- both Jackie Adolph, CPO and Dave Telford, CPO cover our big state for them, Point Designs c/Jason Vardeman-a Texan who will present on partial hand prosthetics, Neuros Medical with a nerve block therapy for residual limb pain, Allied Plastic- a local/national friend in the materials that we use so much, and so many more. Friday workshop presentations include a number of microprocessor prosthetic knees, prosthetic feet and AFO designs, 3D printing, socket comfort and more. Along with Dr Dane Wukich, we have multiple presenters thruout the conference with advanced credentials as well as salesfolk with a hefty amount of clinical and administrative experience in the O&P world. We are working to host a networking session for students looking to find a residency spot that works and 2 possible panel discussions on the niche that is electronic prosthetic ankles and the headache that is a successful fit using made to measurement fabrication. A lot of time and preparation goes into these meetings. Last year in San Antonio we spared no expence for a wonderful 3 day event that was well attended. This year- in the interest of efficiency and Trumplike restraint, we are hosting a 2 day event at a quality venue/hotel that has hosted state O&P meetings before and affords easy access thru either DFW airport/Uber or I45...the DART rail line rolls right by the hotel, too in case you want to wander to downtown Dallas or beyond for a little junketing. It's likely gonna hot that weekend, so dress comfortable and come on down....we'll have the AC running.

At the upcoming Annual meeting in late August, we have the honor to showcase the talents of multiple accomplished professionals. In particular will be our keynote speaker, Dr Dane Wukich. Major Wukich(ret) is currently chairman of the UT Southwestern Prosthetic Orthotic Program- coming to the Dept after serving for many years as Chairman of the Orthopedic Dept. Dr Wukich specializes in many things but most especially for our audience, he will discuss the team approach to the care of the Amputee. He was selected to be the lead trauma/orthopedic surgeon for the Desert Storm campaign in Kuwait in 1991 and has delivered many talks, authored multiple papers, and taught myriad orthopedic residents. He enjoys talking with the orthotists and prosthetists he encounters and will welcome conversation following his Saturday morning presentation.
To come will be a fuller list of the other accomplished professionals who will contribute to the TSOPP August 22-23 meeting in Richardson @ the Richarsson Hilton(not to be confused with the Doubletree Hilton on the other side of I75

As the Annual August 22-23 meeting approaches, we're looking forward to you being there. Friday we will have Workshops and Speakers. Tiffany Graham, CPO and some of her students from UT Southwestern will present their findings on head shape deformity. This presentation dovetaisl nicely with the recent changes to Medicaid coverage for Cranial Remolding Orthoses, allowing some of Texas' most fragile and youngest citizens to access services to improve their future "fitting in". Another workshop/discussion is planned to walk thru many of the common device and practical challenges faced with hospital call. There will be some awesome manufacturer exhibits and workshops happening on Friday, August 22 at the Richardson Hilton. We are so glad to bring together practitioners, educators, and representatives of well known industry supporters from companies that you know or maybe even 1 or 2 that you didn't know about. More in our next post tomoro on what is planned for fun on Ftiday night and then a post on scientific and business activities planned for Saturday. Please plan on being there. Registration is up, the hotel is excellent- they've hosted a number of O&P meetings over the years, and the airways and roads are open. We again are feeling such a mixture of sorrow for the loss of life in the hill country and admiration for the rallying of heroism and support in the face of adversity. There are numerous ways to support this moment- most surely a prayer, an outreach of silent support for those grieving, and an expectation that your daily work in the business of helping people will bring some solace and normalcy in this difficult time for so many

A red cent. A penny. That's about what it takes to get everything that's intangible about attending a professional meeting. Sure, you pay for the hotel, registration, meals and teansportation....or, if you're lucktmy- the business pays for it. In return you get live CEUs, a chance to see cool stuff, and affect the association's future. But that's not what I'm talking about. That penny spent- like the 4th of July- gives you a moment to know what you are about occupationally....like eating a hot dog at a picnic and watching fireworks does for you civilly. Thankful to be an American, thankful to work in O&P. Hope to see u in Richardson in late August. www.tsop.org

The NEW Texas Associat

We are pleased to announce that the transition to a single organization is now complete with both TAOP and TCAAOP voting at their 2019 annual membership meetings to move to a single organization with a new name and new bylaws. This will now enable a single organization to be inclusive of licensed O&P professionals in the State and provide a unified voice for the O&P profession. One strong, unified professional organization can bring together the more than 400 licensed professionals in Texas for more opportunities to engage in the profession and allow for an increased presence and strength for legislative concerns.

The 2019 board members from TAOP and TCAAOP will serve as the Interim Board until new board members are elected at the 2020 first annual meeting of TSOPP. The goal is for the Interim Board to organize the 2020 annual meeting and continuing education conference while leaving major changes to the structure of how the professional organization will run to the newly elected board next year. Our hopes are that engagement of O&P professionals can happen at both a board member level and committee level, as there are plans for various committees to help engage and inform the profession in a greater capacity than before.

As we approach the 2020 Annual Conference to elect new board members and see the work of the new Society begin, please be thinking of how YOU can be involved with the new professional organization. Talk with your co-workers and other colleagues about ideas for how a single O&P organization can best serve our great profession in Texas. When we all step up through our membership and engagement, imagine the possibilities the Texas Society of Orthotic and Prosthetic Professionals has.

Please add the new general information email address to your contacts, info@txsop.org, as communications will be sent from this address. Be anticipating an email once plans are finalized for the date and location of the 2020 Annual Conference with details.
