How Field Officers are Addressing Pet Transport Barriers Directly in the Community

Join Open Door Veterinary Collective (ODVC) for a second series of lively conversations on the third Tuesday of the month, from 12 pm – 12:30 pm Pacific Time, as we explore innovative and practical solutions that organizations are using to address barriers to accessing pet care and resources in their communities. We’ll share successful strategies through short 30-minute presentations, panel discussions, video snippets and Q&A sessions.

Join us on September 16 for a dynamic 30 minute webinar in the ODVC + NACA Partnership Series, spotlighting innovative, community-based solutions led by Field Officers. This interactive session features two organizations sharing how they have integrated pet rides into field services to reduce barriers and increase access to care. Learn how this proactive, compassionate approach is helping families stay together the real-life impact of offering transport solutions. Whether you’re exploring new ways to serve or scaling what works, this conversation will inspire practical steps forward.
