Brown appoints ACSS leader to protect consumers

ACSS Vice President of Governmental Affairs Frank Ruffino was recently appointed by Gov. Brown to the California Board of Chiropractic Examiners.

Ruffino, the Community Partnership Manager at the Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility, has been an activist and leader with ACSS since promoting in 1988.

"Right after I promoted, I went to an ACSS board meeting," said Ruffino.

"I saw the value ACSS provides to every state supervisor and manager, and I've been involved ever since."

Ruffino will join six other peers on the statewide board, the mission of which is to protect consumers from fraudulent chiropractic practitioners.

"In the simplest terms, I'm a consumer advocate," said Ruffino.

"I will make sure the public interest is put above the private interest."
