The objective of the AWV is to further the mutual advancement of women veterinarians in the science of veterinary medicine by bringing them together to share knowledge, support, and friendship. We know what a difference it can make to network with other veterinarians who have achieved professional success and who have learned to balance fulfilling professional and private lives. Our mission is achieved by fostering a network of contact, communication, and support among all veterinarians.
Membership is open to all graduate veterinarians and all veterinary students.
The AWV publishes a quarterly Bulletin containing news items and articles that promote women in veterinary medicine. The Bulletin is mailed to all AWV members and to Libraries at colleges of veterinary medicine throughout the U.S. and Canada. Recent issues of the AWV Bulletin are available to members online. Proceeds from the sale of these notecards provide scholarships for veterinary students. Original note cards.
