BEVA Council members sit on 1-2 of our committees. Each committee is tasked with working on projects and initiatives that aim to support equine veterinary professionals and champion high standards of equine health and welfare and you would be encouraged to explore and work on projects that matter to you as part of your committee role.

Is it a big-time commitment?

Our committees meet up to four times every year with a mix of virtual and in-person meetings and the full BEVA Council comes together in person twice a year.
