What American Chiropractic Association Inc does
Mission
The American Chiropractic Association (ACA) was formed to serve as a representative membership organization for the chiropractic profession.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Government Relations, Insurance and Legal Advocacy - The profession's leadership organization serves as an aggressive advocate for the chiropractic profession and their patients. ACA seeks open access to and utilization of safe, effective, affordable, natural chiropractic care for all through full integration of doctors of chiropractic into the healthcare delivery system. ACA accomplishes this by devoting a substantial part of its resources to issues that affect public policy and legislation, by seeking parity in reimbursement of its members from insurance companies, improving the quality of treatment and by carrying out a dynamic strategic plan to help ensure the professional growth and success of doctors of chiropractic. Fundraising costs associated with raising funds for the legal action fund are included in this category.
Membership Services and Products - ACA devotes a significant portion of its resources to serving its existing members. Services specifically designed as member benefits include a variety of discounts on affinity products, books, brochures and pamphlets for sale that are designed to improve practice management, clinical documentation, and information on various professional developments, and educational seminars for continuing professional education. The costs of retaining members are included in this program.
Publications - Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics (JMPT), ACA Connects (electronic newsletter), and other newsletters published by various councils provide valuable information about ACA's activities and new developments in the field of research, continuing education and reimbursement issues.
Public Awareness and Education - The ACA strives to provide the general public with information about chiropractic and its effectiveness. This is done largely through press releases, interviews with the media, advertisements in national publications, and specific publications for the general public.
The 4 programs described on its FY2024 Form 990, listed largest first by expense.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $7.2M to $8.2M (+13%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2023 11%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
0% of American Chiropractic Association Inc’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (51% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
