About Us
Our role is to connect county, state, and federal disaster response organizations with local Colorado veterinary community resources.
Established: Colorado 2016
The Front Range Veterinary Medical Reserve Corp (FRvMRC) provides support to an estimated 80% of the state of Colorado, which lies east of the continental divide. This is a mixed community of urban regions along the I-25 corridor and rural counties in the eastern plains and southern region of the state.
​
Our unit prepares for and responds to disasters and large-scale disruptions such as wildfires, blizzards, and other animal-related public health events throughout our state.
in 2024, our unit successfully responded to a large animal evacuation event due to wildfire providing sheltering medical support capacity to the local Sheriff’s Department.
We regularly hold preparatory “PrepPet Clinics” (PPC's) for vaccinations, microchipping, and preparedness education in underserved communities.
