Hispanic Heritage Month is over, but we're not done spotlighting our amazing community and the impact we're creating for professionals and clients. We're thrilled to share a recent feature courtesy of our collaboration with the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA). This insightful piece shines a light on the dedicated efforts and vibrant presence of Latinx professionals in veterinary medicine. DID YOU KNOW: Less than 0.5% of all veterinarians are Latinx, while over 60% of veterinary clientele identify as Latinx? This disparity underscores the vital need for a veterinary community that reflects the diverse society we serve, ensuring veterinary care is accessible to the Latinx community. Our association is steadfast in its commitment to empowering Latinx professionals through avenues of professional development, mentorship, outreach, and scholarship. The journey ahead is promising, and as Dr. Marina Tejada insightfully remarks, the individuals featured in this article are not just influencers but trailblazers setting the stage for a more inclusive and representative veterinary field. Discover the inspiring stories of these remarkable professionals who are redefining the landscape of veterinary medicine. READ: https://lnkd.in/e5vbN_FK
