As we all grapple with the election results, please take the time you need to process, grieve, and ground yourself. Taking care of yourself and your loved ones is your priority.
While we each know our personal impact of the election results and can empathize with others, we cannot fully understand how others are feeling or the struggles they are experiencing. Please extend yourself grace so you can extend that same grace to others who will desperately need it.
We are here and we will continue our mission of creating a better world for the LGBTQ+ veterinary community through the lens of intersectionality and antiracism.
Visit our Virtual First Aid Kit for resources that may be of help and share with your family, friends, and colleagues.

To our Allies - this is an important time for our allies and the allies of all marginalized communities to step up.
