Animal welfare data experts are excited to unveil the results of their latest research on animal sheltering and peer-to-peer rehoming (including demographics) from the first half of 2023. In this roundtable, we’ll discuss:

• What’s been happening in shelters this year
• Factors impacting the industry-wide challenges that organizations across the country are facing
• Trends in supported self-rehoming
• What the next six months will bring

We’ll highlight a new scientific model that projects how many millions of animals will enter the animal sheltering system across the country by the end of the year. And we’ll release the findings from a just-conducted survey that digs deeper into what we’re seeing in shelters—and why.

A discussion facilitated by The Association’s CEO, Jim Tedford, CAWA, featuring panelists:

• Stephanie Filer, Executive Director, Shelter Animals Count
• April Huntsman, CAWA, Director of Animal Welfare Insights, Adopt a Pet
• Melissa Thibault Senior Manager – Research, Research and Strategy, ASPCA

This live and recorded program is approved for 1 Certified Animal Welfare Administrator continuing education credit and 1 NACA CE.
