Description

San Diego Humane Society is hiring full-time Community Veterinary Program (CVP) Associates for our San Diego Campus

How you'll impact our mission:At San Diego Humane Society, we're united by our mission to _Inspire Compassion_. One of the greatest challenges facing pet families in San Diego is access to affordable veterinary care. Our Community Veterinary Program (CVP) helps give owned pets the medical care they need, including low-cost preventative and basic sick care, pharmacy services, and basic grooming like nail trims and ear cleanings.
