ICA, ACA presidents endorse
F4CP
The presidents of both the
International Chiropractors Association (ICA) and the American
Chiropractic Association (ACA) are supporting the Foundation
for Chiropractic Progress (F4CP), says Garrett Cuneo, F4CP
chief operating officer. They are joined by other prominent
leaders in chiropractic.
John Maltby, DC, ICA president,
and Richard G. Brassard, DC, ACA president, have each endorsed
the F4CP.
Kent Greenawalt, founder of
F4CP, said, “I am delighted that both the ACA and ICA
have pledged support for The Foundation for Chiropractic Progress.
The Foundation’s mission of positive press for chiropractic
is naturally right and I am thrilled with their support and
leadership.”
In his testimonial, Maltby
said, “This profession has long desired a public relations
program. We believe that the Foundation has a clear and comprehensive
plan to educate the public regarding the benefits of chiropractic
care, and I am pleased to endorse this effort.”
Brassard stated, “The
Foundation is working diligently for every doctor of chiropractic
and every chiropractic supplier in this country. Its mission
is to better educate the public about the profession, thereby
increasing chiropractors’ market share to a more equitable
level. This goal will only be met … with significant
financial support … I, along with other members of the
[ACA], have and will continue to donate funds for this essential
work. It’s an investment that we must all make to insure
a better future for ourselves, our patients, and the chiropractic
profession.”
