When Cursing Isn’t Enough: Understanding Compassion Fatigue and Stress for Animal Welfare Professionals

The emotional train ride affects animal care, animal control, animal welfare workers, and volunteers whether you’re in the field or in the shelter.  And sometimes, cursing just isn’t enough.

This webinar takes a direct look at the emotional and complex aspects of emotional fatigue and stress for animal care, control, and welfare workers and volunteers. It explores how the emotional impact directly affects us as well as how we can turn it into job satisfaction, thereby improving the lives of animals as well as ourselves. Learn how the joys and pains of the job often parallel each other.  We’ll also talk about simple ways to handle all of this stress, even if it includes a curse word or two.

This webinar has been certified by the National Animal Care & Control Association and is approved for 1 Continuing Education Unit. Please refer to your NACA membership portal for current CEU submission process.
