Hybrid Conference - 10/7/22 to 10/8/22 - The Gathering: A Virtual CARE Convening - CARE (fee applies)
2022-10-07 06:00 - 13:00, 2022-10-08 06:00 - 11:00 | Virtual
THE GATHERING is a place to listen to proximate leaders identify their barriers and share their successes to create equitable solutions. The in-person conference takes place on Friday, October 7 from 9am – 4pm ET and Saturday October 8 (in-person only) from 9am – 2pm ET in Philadelphia.
Want to join virtually? You can get an all day pass to watch the Friday presentations at The Gathering virtually for just $35.
The Gathering is an introduction to the Human and Animal Well-being framework in which CARE’s mission-driven work is illustrated. As such, we’ve designed a day that focuses on community wisdom and the unique perspective of Black, Indigenous, and other people of color identified as proximate leaders through our CARE Center program.
CARE views this as a great opportunity for human and animal well-being stakeholders to do some deep listening and take this knowledge to contribute to opportunities with individuals and communities who lack direct engagement or investment by animal welfare. By sharing the work of people of color, who are historically underfunded, we hope to elevate and inspire continued collaboration and support.

The AAFP is excited to announce this year’s annual conference theme, Enriching Feline Care & the Veterinary Experience. When we think about being Cat Friendly, we often think of handling and interactions with cats, however much of Cat Friendly is about elevating the standard of medical and surgical care that cats receive. While the conference will cover aspects of the environment, interactions, techniques, and educating caregivers, it will also cover many medical topics. This enables even the most experienced participant to stay current and up-to-date on feline medicine topics. No matter what your role in the practice or your level of experience with cats, this will be a conference that allows everyone to increase their feline knowledge in order to continue to elevate the standard of care for cats.

Repeatedly ranked one of the Top 10 Animal Behavior and Dog Training Conferences of the Year, the 9th annual Canine Science Symposium is an information-packed two days of applied science that you do not want to miss! Created especially for animal sheltering and behavior and training professionals, the mission of the Symposium is to provide practitioners with information and interventions that will help them improve the welfare of dogs in their shelters and the behavior and training of dogs.
For shelter-specific topics this year, we have talks on excessive arousal, behavioral phenotypes, fostering during the pandemic (with present-day takeaways), various types of short-term fostering programs, and One Welfare. For behavior and training talks, we have a sure-to-be engaging presentation on the effects of aversive control (in light of the potential electronic collar ban in SF) as well as applied behavior analysis in training & enrichment, social interaction as a reinforcer, communication & consent in training, and the role of mood and motivation in canine learning.
Envisioned as a way to connect attendees with the science from the scientists as well as to bring together those working in sheltering & training, the Canine Science Symposium has in-person and, new this year, Zoom live streaming options. The in-person conference will take place at the San Francisco State University Towers Conference Center.
Because of our focus on animal sheltering, we strive to keep registration affordable. Our early bird registration ends April 30, 2023.
