The Canadian Federation of Chiropractic
Regulatory and Educational Accrediting Boards presented its first ever Dr.
Normand Danis Award to Dr. Grayden Bridge.
The Danis Award is the
Federation’s highest individual honor, named for the past president of the Ordre
des chiropraticiens du Québec, Dr. Normand Danis.

CFCREAB’s Board, chaired the Specialties Transition Committee – that had
the responsibility of overseeing the specialty colleges’ move from the CCA to

the Clinical Practice Guidelines Development Committee.
The Award recognizes integrity,
service, sacrifice, vision, and commitment in the arena of chiropractic
licensure, regulation and educational accreditation. As the initial recipient of the Award,
Dr. Grayden Bridge exemplifies the qualities it celebrates.
