Webinar – 6/25/24 – Embracing Diversity: Creating Inclusive Spaces in the Pet Professional Industry – Fear Free

June 25 @ 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM PDT

Embracing Diversity - Fear Free

At Fear Free, we believe that everyone deserves to feel welcome, valued, respected, and protected in all aspects of life, especially at work. A Fear Free work environment strives to promote safety for both people and animals, allowing them to express themselves authentically and to feel valued, safe, and secure while doing so.

Join us for our upcoming webinar on June 25, at 12 p.m. ET hosted by Dr. Adam Christman, DVM, MBA, FFCP to discuss the importance of inclusivity in the workplace and how it leads to better care for pets, owners, and professionals in the industry. Our diverse panel of experts will share their experiences and best practices for fostering a culture of acceptance and support within your community, including support for the LGBTQIA+ community.

During this webinar, we will discuss:

  • Understanding the importance of recognizing and celebrating diverse identities
  • Effective practices and policies that promote a culture of acceptance and support
  • How inclusivity in the workplace leads to better care for pets
  • Practical steps to foster a Fear Free environment that values the emotional wellbeing of both people and animals
