September is Drug Free Pain Management Awareness Month

Posting Date:  Aug 16, 2020

Increasing visibility of chiropractic during the pandemic has never been more important.

For four years, the Foundation for Chiropractic Progress has been celebrating September as National Drug-Free Pain Management Awareness Month. With 50 million chronic pain sufferers and mental health on the decline, informing your communities that drug-free chiropractic care is available to alleviate pain, enhance mind, body and spirit and most importantly, mitigate the opioid crisis, is key to a healthy and happy community.

We need your help in raising public awareness about safe, effective and drug-free chiropractic care. The first step is to contact your local legislative body (Board of Supervisor or City Council) requesting a proclamation in your city/town/state to designate September as Drug-Free Pain Management Awareness Month.

Customize the sample letter and attach the personalized proclamation. Send the two documents to your local legislative body this July.
