A key area of focus for NAVA is to provide support for educational initiatives that are important to the profession and to the health of animals. The NAVA helps build strong relationships between the veterinary care team and the pet owner.

The NAVA is proud to support the Pet Nutrition Alliance (PNA) and its efforts to promote the importance of nutrition. PNA is a worldwide collaboration of nine veterinary organizations that offers valuable resources to the veterinary healthcare team.
