Veterinarians as One Inclusive Community for Empowerment (VOICE)

About

We are a chapter of a national organization that seeks to increase awareness, respect, and sensitivity to differences among all individuals and communities in the field of veterinary medicine. We aim to both increase the accessibility of veterinary medicine to the general public as well as teach our own members, future veterinarians, about the importance of cultural competency and being sensitive and respectful to people of all demographics and backgrounds so that no one feels as though their voice doesn't matter.
