The Association encourages and supports standards of education, ethics, and professional competency for the practice of chiropractic; lobbies for the enactment of favorable laws governing the practice of chiropractic; and pursues public education programs, including the dissemination of information to the media and to government, industries, labor, and insurance companies regarding the value of chiropractic as a healing service. An extensive publications list is available. Office, administrative, and management forms for practitioners are also available.
