MISSION

To ensure Canadian chiropractic students transition successfully from chiropractic college to practice in Canada by forging a strong relationship with the Canadian Chiropractic Association.

OUR VISION

By the year 2025 the SCCA will support and engage student chiropractors in every chiropractic college in North America where there is a group of willing Canadian students.

WHO WE ARE

The Student Canadian Chiropractic Association (SCCA) acts as the voice of Canadian chiropractic students – studying at UWS and around the world – to organizations such as the Canadian Chiropractic Association (CCA) and provincial branches. We strive to keep students informed about the political and professional aspects of chiropractic, including seminars, licensing and registration, government funding changes, and interprofessional collaborations. 

SCCA National is the organization that overarches Canadian chiropractic students and their chapters, wherever they may be. The SCCA was founded in 2018 as a joint effort between the Canadian Chiropractic Association (CCA), Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC), the former New York College of Chiropractic (NYCC), and the University of Western States (UWS). The end goal was to establish a network for all Canadian chiropractic students across the globe from with they could access important information during their transition into practicing Canadian chiropractors. 

From the beginning, it was our hope to eventually collaborate with many chiropractic colleges around the globe to aid in formulating individual chapters that would act as a connector for their student members. As a network, all SCCA chapters will work in a collaborative way with the SCCA National and the CCA in order to offer the best available resources to their members.
