Since its inception in 2006, the Chinook Project has provided essential veterinary care to isolated communities in Canada's north.
Each summer, the Chinook Project responds to a request from a northern community and takes two volunteer veterinarians, 4 AVC students, and one coordinator or AVC technician to the community where they set up a temporary clinic that spays/neuters, vaccinates, and deworms northern dogs.
For more information, contact the coordinators:
Dr. Lisa Miller lmiller@upei.ca
