The Department of Agriculture National Institute of Food and Agriculture awarded a $234,533 Project Grant to the University of Missouri System, doing business as the Curators of the University of Missouri, to address the shortage of veterinarians in rural communities. The 3-year grant, effective September 1, 2023, will fund the development of an online platform, stakeholder focus groups, live webinars, and online educational modules focused on practice startup and ownership for mixed and food animal veterinarians and veterinary students. This aligns with the goals of the Veterinary Services Grant Program (CFDA 10.336) to strengthen rural veterinary services through distance education. The project aims to create a sustainable platform for educational materials to support rural veterinary practice and ownership, thereby enhancing the rural veterinary community.
