Congress Of Chiropractic State Associations

The true value of Congress membership can best be summed up in one word—networking—networking at the annual convention and through the use of the Congress’s communications systems which include email broadcast, the newsletter, our web site, our listserv, and direct mail. While state laws, economies and regional practice styles differ, the basic challenges faced by state chiropractic associations are the same. The Congress provides a forum for state associations to learn from each other—what trends and challenges are sweeping the country, what has or has not worked in other states in dealing with these challenges and what types of projects have been successful in other states which could be duplicated in your own. In addition to providing cutting edge information on chiropractic and association management issues, the Congress continues to develop a Resource Center through which associations can obtain products and services to assist them with increasing their own member benefits and non-dues revenues. As the organization which represents the largest number of chiropractors through our member associations, we are positioned to negotiate deals with companies that individual associations cannot. We feel this is a valuable service, especially for smaller associations, and could easily defray the cost of Congress dues.
