Thank you for your continued support for the Wyoming Veterinary Medical Association (WVMA). For 49 years, the WVMA has provided a forum for Wyoming veterinarians to work together to protect organized veterinary medicine, and the animals and people who depend on it. You are a valued Stakeholder in this Association, and the continued success of our Association depends on your support and engagement.
Your WVMA Board of Directors works diligently throughout the year to represent your interests in an evolving profession on the state, regional and national levels. In March, we asked our members to complete a membership survey regarding Association services and issues impacting the profession. Feedback from that survey will be used by the Board in April to develop a strategic plan that will create a roadmap for our path forward. This plan will be presented during the Summer Meeting where you will be asked for feedback and input.
In the meantime, WVMA was represented at the Capitol during the 2025 Wyoming Legislature by our lobbyist who monitored all legislation affecting our profession. While no action was taken regarding Veterinary Technician Licensure during the Session, the Association will continue to pursue that discussion, as well as monitor proposed changes to the Wyoming Veterinary Practice Act, and other rules and regulations that impact your practice.
Providing quality Continuing Education for license renewal continues to be of the utmost importance to the Association, and we strive to plan and implement meetings that are beneficial to our membership. We hope you are making plans to attend the 2025 Summer Meeting June 22-24 to be held at the National Museum of Military Vehicles in Dubois. Our meetings not only provide valuable continuing education opportunities but allow our members from across the state to come together to discuss, debate and collaborate on emerging profession issues.
Your WVMA membership matters! You matter!
Thank you for being a valued WVMA Stakeholder,
Hayley Wright, DVM
2024-2025 WVMA President
