The Southern Consortium for Small Ruminant Parasite Control (SCSRPC) was established in 2003 to address the growing problem of anthelmintic (dewormer) resistance in small ruminants. The consortium is a group of scientists, veterinarians, and extension specialists who meet on a regular basis to collaborate on research and educational programs and make and revise recommendations for small ruminant parasite control.

As the membership of the consortium expanded, the name was changed to the American Consortium for Small Ruminant Parasite Control (ACSRPC).
