Why should my association become a member of ChiroCongress?

Networking: This is the primary value of a ChiroCongress membership. We provide extensive networking opportunities for your association through our annual convention and our communications systems. This includes our invaluable nonpartisan forum our state associations utilize to learn from each other about current trends and challenges in chiropractic, how other states are dealing with these challenges, and how to duplicate those successful strategies in your own state. 

Discounts and Non-Dues Revenue: ChiroCongress continues to develop a Resource Center through which your association can obtain exclusive products and services that will increase your own members’ benefits and your non-dues revenue. Our organization represents the largest number of chiropractors through our member associations, which gives us the position to negotiate deals you would not otherwise be able to obtain as a singular association. 

Who does ChiroCongress currently represent?

Over fifty associations are currently active members of ChiroCongress. These associations range from large to small and represent a wide range of philosophical backgrounds that allow for a variety of ideas, strategies and opportunities to be shared with each other. 

What does it cost to become a member of ChiroCongress?

The cost of membership is $1,000 per year for regular member associations and $600 per year for emerging member associations.
Please visit our Membership Page for more details on the membership levels and how to join.

Does ChiroCongress sponsor meetings?

ChiroCongress sponsors a handful of meetings every year, the primary focus being our annual convention held every year in November. The convention is structured to provide training on how to more effectively manage the association, as well as to provide updates on chiropractic issues at the state and national levels and facilitate discussions those topics. To learn more about our annual convention and how to get involved, please visit our Annual Convention page. 

ChiroCongress also sponsors the annual National Chiropractic Leadership Forum, where we bring chiropractic’s national organizations to the table in an effort to foster unified leadership in the profession.
