SUMMARY:Online Event - 6/24/25 - MCVMA's Community Connections: DEI is dying\, but was it ever enough? - MCVMA
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation centering on higher education pivoting away from “DEI” language and official programming and how to stay resilient in this changing world. We’ll also discuss DEI in institutions — was it ever really there? \nPlease note: registration is capped at 20 participants. Registration will close 1 hour before the start time. If you’d like to be added to the waiting list\, email us at info@mcvma.org. \nAll attendees must accept the Group Participation Requirements:\n1. This group is intended to support BIPOC (Black\, Indigenous\, People of Color) in the veterinary field\, their allies\, and those looking to become allies. Veterinary professionals (vets\, techs\, assistants\, practice managers/owners\, researchers\, inspectors\, etc.) and students are welcome. \n2. Be Respectful and Courteous\nWe’re all in this together to create a welcoming environment. Let’s treat everyone with respect. Healthy debates are natural\, but respect is required. \n3. No Hate Speech or Bullying\nBullying of any kind isn’t allowed\, and degrading comments about things like race\, ethnicity\, religion\, culture\, age\, weight\, sexual orientation\, gender or identity will not be tolerated. \n4. No Commercial Advertising\, Spam\, Irrelevant Comments \n5. Respect Everyone’s Privacy\nNo space is truly “safe” but we aim to make this space “safer” and welcoming. Being part of this group requires mutual trust. Authentic\, expressive discussions make groups great\, but may also be sensitive and private. Participants may share as little or as much as they’d like\, and we advise all to assess the benefits and risks of their participation. We ask that all participants keep discussions and stories shared in the group confidential. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/j4Y4o_xzQPGv-gfHCwIWdA#/registration

SUMMARY:Online Event - 6/26/25 - Maddie's Monthly Behavior Connection: Leadership through Lifesaving and Euthanasia Process - Maddie's Fund
DESCRIPTION:Difficult lifesaving decisions can divide an organization and jeopardize team spirit. Strong leadership is essential to navigate these decisions and gain buy-in from staff and volunteers. At Cincinnati Animal CARE\, they have found a way to bring their team along and allow them to become part of the process from beginning to end. Through transparency\, open lines of communication\, clear action items\, and an “everyone’s welcome” attitude\, they have developed a supportive and respectful culture that has resulted in a 95% live release rate since 2020\, even as a municipal shelter with more than 4\,000 dogs and 4\,000 cats arriving each year. The buy-in from staff\, volunteers\, and foster caregivers has resulted in more efficiency from a more united team. The CAC team is now focused on lifesaving rather than criticizing and fighting. This presentation will look at how they developed their culture even when decisions are difficult. \nGuest Speaker: Meaghan Colville \nJoin us on the fourth Thursday of every month as we talk about dog and cat behavior – supporting pets in our community and animal shelters. Each month\, we hear from speakers about topics of interest to our group\, such as behavior medications\, modifying animal behavior\, assessing and improving animal welfare\, and how organizations successfully provide behavior support to dogs and cats. \nWho should join: Animal welfare staff and volunteers who are interested in dog and cat behavior\, and everyone who works to keep pets out of shelters and in homes. \nYou only need to register once for all meetings: https://maddies.fund/MonthlyBehaviorRegistration \nCan’t attend live? Register anyway and you will get a link to the recording within a day or two after each meeting. \nAll recordings and resources shared during the webcast will also be available in the Maddie’s Monthly Behavior Connection group on Maddie’s Pet Forum – https://maddies.fund/monthlybehaviorconnectionMPF \nMaddie’s Fund does not share registration information. \nThe opinions expressed by webinar presenters are their own and do not necessarily represent those of Maddie’s Fund. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://maddies.fund/MonthlyBehaviorRegistration
