WELCOME TO THE FUTURE OF CHIROPRACTIC STRATEGIC VISIONING AND PLANNING PROJECT

Download Phase I ReportWatch Phase II Strategic Plan Update

Project Overview

On November 9, 2019, in conjunction with the ChiroCongress annual convention in San Diego, CA, the Future of Chiropractic Forum was held and stakeholders from across the country were invited to participate in this historic event. Representatives from state association leadership, colleges, national organizations, corporate partners, individual practitioners, and more joined together to share their viewpoints through a facilitated discussion focused on what the future of chiropractic looks like in the next 50 years with a goal of identifying a specific effort that a diverse group of individuals and organizations could support.

It was concluded that the profession needs a strategic plan.

ChiroCongress agreed to take on the coordination of this effort on behalf of the profession and to dedicate resources to help manage the project.

Volunteers will be assigned to a specific task force and meet every-other week, as we build out the tactical plan for implementation. The task force meetings will begin March 10 and conclude April 29.
