WASHINGTON - The American Orthotic and Prosthetic Association board of directors has extended its contract with Teri Kuffel, JD, to serve as AOPA’s interim executive director through Dec. 31, 2025. Kuffel stepped into the role on Jan. 1, 2025, following the resignation of Eve Lee. “I have had the opportunity to communicate with Teri on a regular basis,” said Rick Riley, AOPA president. “Teri’s innate understanding of the O&P profession, her proven and passionate abilities as a state and national advocate, as well as her eight years of volunteer service on AOPA’s board, collectively bring high value to the organization and its members. By extending her contract, we have created a longer runway for Teri to work with the board and staff to align our programs, services and strategies with the evolving needs and expectations of our members.” AOPA expects to have an updated strategic plan and “refreshed vision for the future” by the end of summer.
