One Year Later: A Message to Honor Clients and Staff

Published January 24, 2026

At the one-year anniversary of the day CVT began receiving orders from the U.S. government to immediately stop our clinical work overseas, we recognize the deep impacts on our clients, who lost their care. And importantly, we honor the more than 400 esteemed colleagues who lost their jobs.
