Community Animal Medicine Project
CAMP is Southern California’s largest nonprofit veterinary organization, serving nearly 100,000 pets a year in historically excluded Los Angeles communities and keeping pets and their people together.
Purpose
CAMP exists to keep pets and their people together. We provide affordable, high-quality veterinary care in historically excluded Los Angeles communities, so that cost and distance never force a family to choose between their pet’s health and their household’s needs.
The Community Animal Medicine Project (CAMP) is Southern California’s largest nonprofit veterinary organization, providing high-quality, low-cost care to historically excluded communities across Los Angeles. Since 2007, CAMP has spayed and neutered more than 375,000 cats and dogs. Today, six clinics and two mobile units serve nearly 100,000 pets each year at prices up to 80% below private practices. More than 70% of CAMP’s patients live in households earning under $40,000 a year, and 90% of CAMP’s team is bilingual in Spanish and English. Through its Veterinary Training Project, CAMP has also trained nearly 200 veterinarians in high-quality, high-volume spay/neuter, helping address the workforce shortage behind the shelter crisis. CAMP is about community: keeping pets and their people together, where they belong. Learn more at campla.org.

Vision
A Los Angeles where every pet can get the veterinary care they need, every family can keep the animals they love, and no healthy or treatable animal loses its life because care was out of reach.
Mission
CAMP’s mission is to substantially reduce animal shelter euthanasia and intake by providing high-quality, low-cost veterinary services to communities where access to care is financially or geographically out of reach.
