Hello, VeTouch clients!
Animal Humane Society is hosting a pet food pantry tomorrow (Saturday, December 21) at their University Ave location: 1159 University Ave, St. Paul, at the Dunlap entrance from 10am-until supplies last—likely around 2pm. They will not be having people wait outside, and are asking folks to not bring pets if possible, in order to maintain a little bit of order in all the chaos 😊

One Health in Action: VeTouch (Veterinary Treatment Outreach for Urban Community Health) and PNC (Phillips Neighborhood Clinic) joined forces for the first time on July 14th and provided care to both veterinary and human patients in the same setting.

Last month, faculty and student volunteers jointly provided care to both animal and human patients in the same clinical setting.

The Animal Humane Society (AHS) is interested in learning about your experience and needs as a pet owner who has been to VeTouch! They are requesting input through an online survey -- see attached fliers for more details. This is completely optional and a chance to connect directly with AHS about what your pet means to your family and how they may be able to better support that bond.
