SACRAMENTO, February 14, 2019- The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) is welcoming volunteers with knowledge and expertise in California's veterinary industry to serve on the 2019 Pet Lover's License Plate Grant Program Technical Review Committee. This committee reviews, evaluates, and makes recommendations to CDFA on proposals submitted for funding to California's Pet Lover's License Plate Grant Program.

These grants are awarded through a competitive solicitation process, and they're designed to prevent pet overpopulation in California by providing funds for spay and neuter services to municipalities and non-profit organizations. Grant awards will range from $5,000 to $50,000 per project.

The Technical Review Committee consists of representatives from government and non-government organizations. Technical Review Committee members will begin work in March 2019.

All individuals interested in serving on the Technical Review Committee must submit a completed Conflict of Interest form and a copy of their résumé or curriculum vitae to grants@cdfa.ca.gov before 5 p.m. on Wednesday, March 6, 2019.
