PET Talk: Community Veterinary Services and One Health

The model of animal welfare is pivoting to provide more community based services. Animals are increasingly becoming recognized as integral to the family unit, resulting in the need for more holistic care and support. Join San Diego Humane Society as we discuss bringing Community Veterinary Services directly into underserved communities to reach people where they are so both humans and their companion animals can get the care and resources needed to thrive.
