Program For Pet Health Equity

The Program for Pet Health Equity (PPHE) seeks to improve access to veterinary care for pets and their families not adequately served by the current system. We promote and facilitate national collaborations and public policy development to remove barriers to veterinary care. Our activities include education, service, and social and public health research. PPHE also developed AlignCare, a One Health healthcare system that addresses the needs of people, their pets, and their ecosystem, which is largely defined by socioeconomics. AlignCare connect families, social service agencies and veterinary service providers while leveraging community resources and activities.
