The UCF, though young in chronology, like the kids it benefits, is led by Chairman Pasquale Cerasoli, a 50 year chiropractic veteran.
Thousands of adjustments later, the group seeks to spread the important message that chiropractic is good for kids: a timely message, given the current trend among some media to try and project chiropractic pediatrics as dangerous (Wall Street Journal and "20/20").
"We envision one day to have a children's chiropractic center that will serve thousand of kids each week and draw worldwide attention," explained Todd Herold, DC, president of UCF. The goal, he says, is to make chiropractic a household word. "We expect satellite offices globally," he added.
While the UCF receives tax deductible donations, sometimes a few dollars, sometimes thousands, the group acknowledges it will take millions of dollars to fulfill their vision.
