ACA's Corporate Membership Program provides partner companies a way to demonstrate meaningful support for the chiropractic profession while also increasing their profiles within the chiropractic community. ACA connects its partner companies to the entire spectrum of ACA members: not only chiropractic physicians, but also thousands of chiropractic students with years of practice ahead of them and chiropractic assistants who make many purchasing decisions. Corporate member dues, in turn, help ACA continue its many initiatives aimed at advancing the chiropractic profession and expanding access to care for patients.
"Doctors of chiropractic bear the burden of juggling expert patient care with the demands of running a business," said ACA President Keith Overland, DC. "Building bridges between doctors of chiropractic and companies with products and services that can help meet their practice needs is good for everyone."
