ICDC Travel Grant Winners

Over the next few days, we will be highlighting the winners of the ICDC 2020 Travel Grant winners! These oustanding students will be sharing a little bit about their experiences at different conferecnes that were made possible by the SAVMA's Integrative Communication and Diversity Committee.

“At the 2019 AAEP Convention, I received the opportunity to expand my knowledge of equine health and to share in the discussion of current issues affecting the sustainability of a career in equine veterinary medicine, such as mental health and balancing motherhood with the availability demands on equine practitioners. The information, connections, and insight I received from this experience have served to further my passion for equine medicine and for becoming an active advocate in reshaping the industry in pursuit of continuous advancement and diversified inclusion.” - Breanthony Baker, Texas A & M, 2019 AAEP Convention, Denver, CO
