RECOGNIZE YOUR
OUTSTANDING COLLEAGUE
WITH A
CVMA AWARD!
This article was originally printed in the Sept/Oct 2026 issue of the California Veterinarian magazine.
Each year, the CVMA celebrates exceptional members of the veterinary community with distinguished awards. Do you know a veterinarian, RVT, or community advocate who goes above and beyond? Whether they are mentoring the next generation, volunteering locally, or leading organized veterinary medicine, their contributions deserve to be celebrated across California.
It only takes a few minutes to nominate a deserving colleague. Honorees are recognized in the California Veterinarian magazine, featured on CVMA digital channels, and celebrated onstage at the Pacific Veterinary Conference!
Additional descriptions of each award and nominating criteria are available here.
It’s Not About Politics….It’s About Your Profession. The CVMA-PAC is a bipartisan political action committee whose purpose is to educate state legislators and candidates on issues of importance to the veterinary profession
