Fabrizio Mancini, DC, president of Parker College of Chiropractic, was recently honored by the Texas Chiropractic Association (TCA) with the association's Legislative Leadership Award. The award was presented to Dr. Mancini by Scott Wofford, DC, president‑elect of the TCA and a 1989 graduate of Parker College.

Mancini received the award in recognition of exemplary leadership, unwavering dedication and valiant service to the chiropractic profession. "Dr. Mancini," said Patte Kent, TCA Executive Director, "has worked tirelessly at the local, state and national levels to further the Chiropractic profession in every way." TCA executive officers, the legislative coordinator and the TCA lobbyist select the award recipient.
