New England VMA Seeks Massachusetts Rep
Massachusetts is seeking a Representative to the New England Veterinary Medical Association (NEVMA)
Get involved in organized veterinary medicine in New England!
NEVMA is a 501c3 non-profit organization whose sole purpose is to put on a regional veterinary conference each September in Portland, Maine. Volunteer representatives serve on the Board for a four-year term and are appointed by the six New England state veterinary associations (up to two per state). The Board is tasked with developing the conference and supporting planning meetings.
Time commitments vary by position, from ~5-15 hours/year for directors on small committees to ~30-40 hours/year for leadership and conference chair positions. The board works closely with a conference management team (Hannah Street Consulting), which provides extensive support to all volunteers.
Representatives are expected to attend the leadership meeting in Portland in September to collaborate with leaders and staff from across the region. Additionally, both representatives are part of MVMA’s Advisory Committee, which meets quarterly on Zoom. While attendance at MVMA meetings is not required, it’s very much encouraged.
This is a great opportunity to get involved with organized veterinary medicine and meet incredible people, develop leadership skills, and contribute meaningfully to New England causes. Another bonus is that you can easily meet the CE requirements each year too!
