FINAL WEEK
2020: The Times They Are A Changin’- Part 3
August 27 at 6:00 PM EST

The impacts of COVID-19 on every aspect of life are immeasurable and animal welfare is no exception. However, one of the greatest realizations to emerge from the pandemic is that real change is possible in our field.

In parts 1 and 2 we dove into navigating the landscape of change, especially as it pertains to leveraging our communities and removing barriers to support lifesaving work. We heard from Best Friends staff members and network partners who worked through shifting organizational operations and underwent personal transformations in their lifesaving journey.

In this final town hall of the series, all the panelists return for a live discussion where no question is off limits.

Moderators:

Bethany Heins, director, operations & strategic projects, national programs
Makena Yarbrough, regional director (Mid-Atlantic and Southeast)

Panelists:

Heather Owen, executive director, One Tail at a Time
Jackie Roach, founder, Taysia Blue Rescue
Denise Deisler, executive director, Jacksonville Humane Society
Stacey Rogers, regional director (Midwest), Best Friends Animal Society
Destiny Haney, community cat program manager, Best Friends Animal Society
Kristan McCormick, transport coordinator for embed programs, Best Friends Animal Society
