Strengthening the Future of Pedorthics through United Support for Education, Research, and Professional Development<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The Orthotics and Prosthetics Foundation for Education and Research (The O&P Foundation) is honored to announce that\u00a0The Pedorthic Foundation<\/strong>\u00a0has voted to dissolve and transfer its assets to The O&P Foundation, ensuring the continuation of its decades-long mission to advance the profession of pedorthics.<\/p>\n

Effective immediately, The O&P Foundation will assume stewardship of The Pedorthic Foundation\u2019s legacy and funds, which will be dedicated exclusively to supporting pedorthic education, research, and professional development initiatives. The first O&P Foundation Pedorthic Programs for fiscal year 2026 will be announced next month.<\/p>\n

As part of this transition, The O&P Foundation will continue close collaboration with leaders from The Pedorthic Foundation to ensure seamless integration and enduring representation of the pedorthic profession in program development and review processes. Pedorthic professionals will serve on program committees and selection panels, helping guide the direction of future initiatives.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThis is an incredibly exciting moment and represents a meaningful step forward in our shared effort to rejuvenate and strengthen the pedorthic profession. By entrusting the Pedorthic Foundation\u2019s legacy to The O&P Foundation, we are ensuring that our commitment to advancing education, research, and professional growth in pedorthics continues to thrive and evolve in the years to come.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2014 Dennis Janisse<\/strong>\u00a0CPed, Past President, The Pedorthic Foundation<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Chris Fairman CPO, Immediate Past Chair, and Fanny Schultea MS, MSEd, CPO, FAAOP(D), Executive Director of The O&P Foundation issued a joint statement:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201c<\/strong>We proudly acknowledge and thank<\/em>\u00a0The Pedorthic Foundation\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>and its visionary leaders,\u00a0<\/em>Dennis Janisse\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>CPed and\u00a0<\/em>Scott Williamson<\/em><\/strong>, for their exceptional leadership and generosity. Their decision to consolidate efforts and align resources with The O&P Foundation reflects true foresight and a shared commitment to advancing education, research, and professional growth in pedorthics. This act of collaboration not only strengthens the collective impact of both organizations but also ensures that pedorthic initiatives continue. The timing of this announcement also captures their thoughtful consideration of The O&P Foundation\u2019s ongoing\u00a0<\/em>$1 million match challenge\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>from the American Board for Certification in Orthotics, Prosthetics & Pedorthics (ABC) which will further amplify the impact of these resources towards fueling a sustainable future for orthotics, prosthetics, and pedorthics.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Additional details and new opportunities for the pedorthic community will be announced during the Pedorthic Footcare Association (PFA) Annual Symposium, held in conjunction with the American Academy of Orthotists and Prosthetists (AAOP) Annual Meeting in Nashville in February 2026.<\/p>\n
