WE ARE The first meeting of the chiropractic licensing boards was held in 1919.
The Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards became an organization
officially in 1926, with different names over the years. Our purposes are
detailed in the Certificate of Incorporation. In summary, these deal with
maintaining high, uniform standards in areas related to chiropractic licensure,
regulation, discipline, and education. The corporation is non-profit, deriving
its income from member dues, directory sales, financial donations and conference
fees. Dues are based on the number of active chiropractic licenses. The FCLB
serves as a clearinghouse and forum for the discussion of important political
issues. The annual conference and district meetings provide an opportunity for a
healthy exchange of ideas and viewpoints, as well as unified adoption of
resolutions protecting the profession's examining regulatory standards and
ultimately the consumer public. The CIN-BAD system offers several informational
databases to member boards and other subscribers. CIN-BAD's ever-expanding
databases are increasingly significant to regulatory boards, chiropractic
colleges, managed care providers, law enforcement, and the public. Eligible
members of the FCLB include boards having jurisdiction to license or regulate
the practice of chiropractic in the states, provinces, commonwealths or
territories of the United States of America, Canada, Australia, Mexico, and
other countries. Current board members, as well as those who have served on a
board within the last five years, may participate as Fellows in FCLB activities,
including holding office or serving on standing committees. Those who have ever
served on a chiropractic regulatory board are Honorary Fellows, privileged to
attend the annual business meeting. Other organizations with an interest in
chiropractic licensure are also active with the Federation. WHAT WE DO
