Volunteer to Deploy

Faculty, staff, and students with the UF College of Veterinary Medicine may volunteer to deploy with the VETS team with permission from their department/supervisors. Joining the volunteer list does not guarantee or obligate deployment response, but does provide the team with a targeted list to contact when a mission request is issued. Relevant information about each deployment will be shared as the team receives a mission request, including duration of the operation, location, and volunteer duties.

The below form should be updated annually to reflect availability and interest of any potential volunteers. Please contact Brandi Phillips at brandikphillips@ufl.edu if you have any questions.
