The Chinook Project provides essential veterinary care to remote communities in Canada’s north. The Project is based at the Atlantic Veterinary College at the University of Prince Edward Island, and has charitable status through UPEI. Generous support from our partners, our supporters, and UPEI means that the services of the Chinook Project are provided free of charge to the communities we serve.
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 and sets up a temporary free clinic that spays/neuters, vaccinates, and de-worms northern dogs.
