Intake is up, but so is innovation and positive disruption. In this series of four dynamic roundtable conversations, frontline workers leading change across California and the country will highlight collaborative approaches to removing barriers that come between people and pets and dish on creative solutions they’re implementing to ensure pets spend more nights at home, not in the shelter. 

Pull up a seat and bring your questions for our panelists to discuss around the table on August 17, 24, 31 and September 7 from 9-10 a.m. PDT. Register for the series to attend live or access on-demand after each event, and visit www.californiaforallanimals.com/together to learn more about funding and resources available to California shelters working to keep and bring more #PetsAndPeopleTogether / #MascotasYPersonasJuntas.

September 7: Winning the Fight to Reunite Pets and People

What’s working and what’s still holding us back when it comes to Return to Home? At this roundtable, panelists will gather to share workarounds for prohibitive reclaim fees and processes, successful all-hands-on-deck messaging approaches, and community-centered programs that are building relationships and reuniting pets and people from the get-go—and keeping more animals out of the shelter. Learn how one shelter more than doubled their RTH rate and achieved more wins for animals, their people, and frontline staff. Pull up a chair, bring your own RTH-related questions, and take a heaping portion of ideas to-go.
