“I have been to this conference almost every year since I discovered it about 20 years ago. In my opinion, it rates higher than national conferences.”
“MVC was a life-changing experience for me. My passion has only grown after attending this conference, and I am now pursuing a bachelor's in criminal justice. I am going to continue my education until I can do everything I can to help animals in need. The speakers I had, honestly, changed my life.”
“I cannot thank you enough for having an affordable conference with excellent content. I come every year. Thank you for all you do and see you next year!”
