ASV Regional Coalitions

The Association of Shelter Veterinarians recognizes the desire and need for collaborative spaces for veterinarians engaged in shelter and community animal care to engage in beneficial discussions and to build community. In an effort to facilitate these spaces, we have developed 11 Regional Coalitions. The goal of these coalitions is to build strong local communities that connect, support, and inspire members in meaningful ways. Please, scroll down for more information about upcoming coalition discussions. These discussions can also be found on the website calendar.

  • New England: CT, ME, MA, NH, RI, VT
