It’s hard to believe, but Chiro Texpo ’26 is almost here and, sadly, my year as your TCA President is almost over. First things first: If you’re not registered for Chiro Texpo ’26, what are you waiting for? For the first time in over a decade, the Texas Chiropractic Association is back in Austin for our state convention, and we’re calling it The ATX Experience, capitalizing on the unique vibe of our capital city. Join us June 26-28 at the AT&T Hotel & Conference Center. Register today! It is going to be an epic weekend, thanks to the hard work of our Education & Events Committee, staff, and dedicated volunteers. As the son of a chiropractor and TCA Past President, I have been attending TCA conventions since I was a boy, and Chiro Texpo gets better every year. We made sure you have lots of choices, including nationally recognized experts on the main stage, elite instructors in the Adjust Lab, and niche sessions in the other classrooms. Need proof? Check out the speakers and schedule! Community remains a big part of Chiro Texpo ’26, and you’ll find it at the Boots & Bubbles Women’s Luncheon and the Next Gen sessions for new DCs and students. Get the latest chiropractic updates at Friday’s Welcome, Annual Meeting & Legislative Update before joining us for the Vendor Luncheon and Opening Night Party. On Saturday, arrive early to our exclusive luncheons. Don’t worry, it’s not too late to buy a ticket to the President’s Gala that night, where we’ll recognize the people who have given so much to our profession. As your TCA President, I have a few asks. If you are attending Chiro Texpo ’26, please spend lots of time in the Texpo Exhibit Hall and visit our TCA Official Partners and Chiro Texpo Exhibitors and Sponsors. If you’re not a TCA member, please join now! TCA is here to protect, preserve and promote chiropractic in Texas, and we can’t do it without you! Lastly, please consider donating to the Chiropractic Development Initiative (CDI), which funds our advocacy, legal defense, and public relations initiatives. I proud to be a CDI 100 x $100 contributor … sign up for 100 x $100 now! TCA is a member-driven organization, and we lean on our small army of volunteers and staff. I want to acknowledge our hard-working Board of Directors, Department Coordinators, Committee Chairs, and all the volunteers who helped me during my tenure as TCA President. It has been my privilege to serve with them, and I urge you to support our incoming Executive Officers, Drs. Andrew Oteo, Korey Rose, and Shawn McHone. Without a doubt, TCA is in capable hands. I can’t wait to see you at Chiro Texpo ’26. While the CE sessions are top-notch, the real value of Chiro Texpo, for me, is the conversations and camaraderie. You just can’t get that from logging in from your computer. Please join me in Austin! With gratitude, Don White, DC 2025-26 TCA President
