Sutherland Cranial Teaching Foundation, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization established in 1953 by William Garner Sutherland, D.O., D.Sc.(hon.) and senior members of his teaching faculty.

Dr. Sutherland was the first president of the foundation, and since his death in 1954, there have been just six subsequent presidents, which has provided for a continuity in the organization’s teaching program.

The Société Ostéopathique Franco-Américaine is an French non-profit association born in 2010 from the desire to maintain a living link between French-speaking osteopaths and the historic cradle of traditional osteopathy. The association was founded in 1997 by Sheila Brennan (American) and Emmanuel Roche (French), both students of Dr. James Jealous. Every year, the association organizes a course with an American or European osteopath practicing traditional osteopathy, participates in academic or university congresses and events (Journées résonnances; C.O.R.P.U.S), films interviews with American or European osteopaths (Paroles d’ostéopathes).
