A message about our beneficiary:
The Chiropractic Defense Council (an organization under the OneChiropractic association) is a 501c-3 non-profit that is committed to advocating and defending the chiropractic profession. OneChiropractic was created in 2016 and since its inception it has been fighting for the chiropractic profession via development of the Chiropractic Defense Council.
Four years ago, the Chiropractic Defense Council took on the mission to clean up the legislative language around animal chiropractic across all 50 states. Since that time, they have helped individual chiropractors that are being harassed by veterinary boards as well as assist the states working to change the legislative language so that they can be more inclusive of certified animal chiropractors.
All resources that are brought in from this event will go to further these efforts by helping the Chiropractic Defense Council in hiring attorneys and lobbyists as to ensure we achieve our goal of all 50 states having pro-animal chiropractic legislation by the end of 2029!
