What Our Members Say
My membership is worth every penny! The ORA has been VERY helpful. The FSCO site exam went very well. He was VERY impressed with my binder!! I used the ORA info as my template. You guys do a great job and I also find the workshops very useful.
Laura Gridel
Client Services Coordinator, Lawlor Therapy Support ServicesThank you for your prompt and helpful response. I am so impressed with everyone’s professionalism at the ORA. Clearly I have joined a great team!
Donna Barefoot, B.A.,M.Ed.,R.R.P.,CCPCPR.
Psychotherapist in Neuro-RehabilitationJoining the ORA has been extremely positive for our company and for me personally. For so many reasons, the work that I chose out of passion and love is now so disheartening. The ORA has given me pause to think, a way to participate in making change, colleagues to commiserate and plan with, and some hope. Not a lot – but some.
Barbara Claiman, M.A., R.R.P.,
MCVP Director, Client Services, Community SolutionsVery well written Licensing Kit! Thank you to the ORA for continuing to represent us so well.
