COVID-19 Resources from Your VIN Family

VIN can't help you get your hands on a case of toilet paper, but your VIN family has put together these RESOURCES and news relevant to the veterinary community and pet owners. Elsewhere in the VIN family, eVetSites and VINx are helping colleagues with customizable COVID-19 newsletters and links to client education resources such as Veterinary Partner. The VIN Student Team is developing plans to help our future colleagues.
It's important not to neglect ourselves in troubled times.

The Mindfulness Meditation community, hosted by Michele Gaspar, DVM, DABVP (Feline Practice), MA, LPC, is holding an online retreat this Sunday from noon to 2 p.m. ET. All VINners are welcome. Click here on Sunday to attend.

The group will have discussions, practice breath work with Gwen Jeun, and meditate.  No experience necessary.
