Shelter Learniverse and Industry-Wide Calendar

Maddie’s Fund Presents: Learn how a private veterinary practice is partnering with human health care and social workers in unique ways to support people and their pets. We’ll explore how two non-profits are reaching out to their community to help keep pets and their people together using a wide range of services ranging from veterinary care, food assistance, behavior support, pet support guides, outreach events, and more.

The AAWA Presents: The experience of meaningfulness is a critical ingredient to thriving at work.  While animal welfare work is naturally imbued with a sense of meaning, especially in times of crisis, we often lose sight of it or fail to enable it.  Research finds those who work for purposeful leaders – leaders who routinely enable the experience of meaningfulness throughout their teams – are more fulfilled, resilient, higher performing, and significantly less likely to burn out, even in the most challenging times.
