The Manitoba Veterinary Technologists Association (MVTA) believes that Veterinary Technologists (RVTs) deserve to be celebrated not just during RVT Month, but all year round.

Recognizing RVT Month - RVT Month, celebrated each October, is a time to acknowledge and appreciate the hard work and commitment of the RVTs across our Province. It's a month when we come together to show our gratitude for their tireless efforts, professionalism, and unwavering dedication to animal care.

However, we strongly believe that our members deserve recognition and support throughout the entire year. RVTs work tirelessly every day, and their passion for animal welfare should be celebrated consistently, not just for a month.
