The annual conference and district meetings of the FCLB give an opportunity for an exchange of ideas and viewpoints between member boards, as well as unified adoption of resolutions protecting the profession's examining regulatory standards and ultimately the consumer public. The FCLB database of providers (CIN-BAD, (Chiropractic Information Network - Board Action Database) provides member boards and other subscribers access to information regarding licensed chiropractors in the US, Canada, and Australia. CIN-BAD's databases are resources for regulatory boards, chiropractic colleges, managed care providers, law enforcement agencies, and the public.
