The American Association of Swine Veterinarians and MentorVet will be collaborating to launch a new mentorship program for young swine veterinarians in 2023. For this partnership, AASV will be awarding 5 full scholarships to early-career swine veterinarians within AASV to participate in the Spring 2023 MentorVet Program.

MentorVet, a rapidly growing entity that leverages evidence-based approaches to empower individuals to thrive within veterinary medicine, has just released their yearly impact report revealing that their flagship program, the MentorVet Program, supported over 200 early-career veterinarians over the past year. This report highlighted evidence that after completing the program, MentorVet participants had a significantly higher average wellbeing level as compared to a control group.

We are so thrilled to announce the formation of the MentorVet Advisory Board! Our Founder, Addie Reinhard, has been diligently and intentionally building this team for the last six months. Through this process, we have very thoughtfully chosen each one of these individuals to support the MentorVet vision because of their expertise and most perhaps importantly—their commitment and desire to enact positive change within the veterinary profession.

Royal Canin USA and Merck Animal Health have joined forces to award 20 full veterinary scholarships as part of the Spring 2022 MentorVet program. The scholarships will directly benefit early-career veterinarians in Pawsibilities Vet Med, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization with a mentoring platform that aims to proactively increase all forms of diversity within the veterinary profession.
