The NJVMA defends your right to practice and protects your license by ensuring that New Jersey’s veterinarians have an active presence at the State House. The NJVMA covers the cost of a lobbyist who actively represents the veterinary profession on proposed federal and state legislation and regulations at the legislature and the State Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners.
The NJVMA Political Action Committee (PAC) works closely with the Legislative Committee and NJVMA’s lobbyist to educate state legislators and candidates on issues of importance to the veterinary profession. The NJVMA PAC is supported through voluntary donations included on the NJVMA membership/renewal forms.

Veterinary owners, managers, and directors are subject to a variety of federal OSHA regulations. Failure to comply with those regulations can lead to steep fines, legal fees, and even business closure.
That is why NJVMA has partnered with CST – Certified Safety Training, experts in OSHA compliance, to offer you fully customized and discounted OSHA safety programs for your practices.
Through CST, you can receive a comprehensive audit of how well your practice is complying with health and safety standards. You will then receive a written compliance plan, including recordkeeping requirements, fact sheets, customizable forms, unlimited access to online OSHA training modules, and a 24-hour hotline to answer your pressing questions about health and safety compliance.
CST can even take care of all of your record-keeping requirements, which is sure to save your practice hours of administrative work. Click HERE for more info.
