Disasters can affect anyone. Preparing to care for your family, pets, fosters, and shelter animals during and after an emergency is vital before the disaster hits.

This session will offer participants a brief overview of emergency planning and response for animal shelters, rescue groups, and foster parents, with a focus on considerations for kittens. It will cover common emergencies to prepare for, information on creating an emergency plan for shelters and foster homes in advance of a crisis, and agencies and organizations that can help with the process. We will also touch on the concept of community animal response teams and how you can join or create a team within your community.

Our speaker is Joanna Fortin, Director of Community Programs for the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria in Alexandria, Virginia.
