The Michigan Association of Chiropractors has joined the Foundation for Chiropractic Progress as its first group member. Group member status is achieved by committing to an annual contribution of $10 per "qualified stakeholder," consisting of DCs who practice full-time and pay full association dues. (Full-time DCs in their first three years of practice are included at no cost if the association offers a discounted dues rate.)
"Group Membership delivers tremendous value not only to our association as a whole, but also to our individual stakeholders, who now have access to countless benefits at no added cost," said Kristine Dowell, executive director of the MAC.
Continuing to impress the advertising and marketing world, The Foundation for Chiropractic Progress (F4CP) has again been recognized by industry organizations for its excellence in educating consumers on the benefits of chiropractic, this time through social media, newsletters, and demonstrating thought leadership by promoting holistic well-being.
