Coalition for the Veterinary Professional Associates (CVPA)
The Coalition for the Veterinary Professional Associate is a nonprofit 501(c)(4) organization born from the need to expand the roles of veterinary professionals to serve our animal companions and all stakeholders better. With solid support from universities, rural settings, shelters, and companion animal environments, this group has come together to lobby for and support the creation of these new Veterinary Professional Associate providers.
This talented and connected group is beginning to create standards, certification, and accreditation processes similar to those for nurse practitioners and physician assistants in human healthcare.
Additionally, the CVPA is engaged with many associations in America on this topic and other pressing veterinary technician issues. The CVPA is forging strong alliances for the betterment of the profession.
