Print ads are available in both the Journal of Geriatric Physical Therapy, and our newsletter, GeriNotes.  Advertising in Section on Geriatrics publications is an effective, relatively low-cost way to target Physical Therapists, Physical Therapist Assistants, and Students.  Our publications reach our over 5,000 members in the US, and are included in many libraries in the US and internationally.  Some issues are also distributed at APTA’s Annual Conference and Combined Sections Meeting. 

Section on Geriatrics Advertising Packet

Many companies are looking for ways to reach potential clients individually: to make a more personal impression.  A great way to do this is to sponsor the Section on Geriatrics at one of our meetings.  The Section offers sponsorship opportunities at the Combined Sections Meeting (CSM), Annual Conference, and at our Regional Courses.  Below are our current offerings.  You may e-mail geriatrics@apta.org to sign up to receive future sponsorship information as soon as it is available.

$1,000	Thank-you on our website where the course information is posted. Verbal announcement at the course to thank your company for their sponsorship. Listed as a bronze-level sponsor in the course handouts. Contact the Section Office at geriatrics@apta.org if you are interested! .

Representatives may register for free if they are eligible to attend the course, may put materials on participant chairs before the course begins, and may answer questions from participants. Representatives will be introduced to the course participants so that participants may approach them during breaks or lunch. Representatives may NOT make announcements to the group or approach participants with company information. It is essential that course participants feel comfortable, and do not feel like our course became an advertisement. Contact the Section Office at geriatrics@apta.org if you are interested!
