The APTA Reach 100 Challenge is a nationwide contest promoting membership for student PTs and PTAs across the US. The winning photo this year was submitted by students from The University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP). It was taken at the famous Scenic Drive near campus overlooking the US/Mexico border and the mountains in Juarez, Mexico. Congratulations & Felicidades to the UTEP DPT Program for representing Texas this year!

"When I first learned about the American Physical Therapy Association, I erroneously thought of membership as just another expensive checklist to fulfill as a student. But I was completely wrong. Luckily, I have had great classmates and faculty to help lead me out of ignorance and to full community within the Physical Therapy world. APTA is an essential component that empowers the physical therapist clinically and professionally. To me, APTA has opened up an entire world of possibilities when I was only looking through a keyhole as to what a physical therapist does and can be. Without APTA, I would have never been able to learn about the specialties that interest me, attend eye-opening conferences or take part in community challenges to raise awareness for physical therapy at the community and political spheres. I know that upon graduation, I will continue to find ways to actively participate in APTA and encourage my peers to do the same for the multitude of benefits this organization offers."
