The grant awarded will support the creation of a booklet that will combine all of the cost-effectiveness data of integrative medicine across many disciplines. This booklet will be a concise and well-researched source to aid educated individuals on benefits of integrative medicine and will be a very valuable resource when discussing the merits of integrative medicine with your state and national representatives.

Emerson Ecologics is committed to supporting the goal to recruit and train 6,000 active chiropractors across the country to aid in providing care to our military members.

“It was very difficult to decide on only four organizations to receive grant awards, as we reviewed numerous applications from organizations that were all doing great work to advance the practice and accessibility of integrative medicine,” said Jaclyn Chasse, ND, Medical Director at Emerson Ecologics. “The chosen organizations all share a devotion to improving healthcare and the practice of integrative medicine, and each has a viable plan to achieve their objectives. We are thrilled to support their work.”

The Emerson Grant is a competitive, discretionary award ranging from $500 to $10,000.
