SUMMARY:Online Event - 7/3/25 - Maddie's Monthly Foster Connection: Behind the Bark: What Foster Feedback Can Teach Any Program - Maddie's Fund
DESCRIPTION:When fosters speak up\, we sometimes default to extremes: either it’s just “one unhappy person\,” or it’s a sign the whole program is broken beyond repair. But the truth about how fosters experience your program lives in the gaps between assumptions and reality. In this talk\, we’ll explore how LifeLine Animal Project developed\, launched\, and analyzed a foster experience survey to uncover hidden trends\, validate unspoken concerns\, and turn raw feedback into rapid\, strategic improvements. Whether you lead a large shelter or a volunteer-based rescue program\, the lessons behind the data can help you strengthen your foundation\, one honest answer at a time. \nGuest Speaker: Daisy Navin\, Foster Programs Manager\, LifeLine Animal Project \nDaisy Navin is the Foster Programs Manager at LifeLine Animal Project\, where she oversees foster program development strategy across three Atlanta shelters\, including two high-intake municipal facilities. She helped grow LifeLine’s foster program into one of the largest in the country\, which placed over 13\,000 animals into foster homes 2024. Daisy is passionate about low-barrier fostering\, matchmaking\, foster relations\, and turning everyday insights into meaningful change. She’s presented with Maddie’s Fund on foster onboarding and loves collaborating with other shelters to troubleshoot\, innovate\, and share life-saving ideas. Her work focuses around one question: what do\nfosters need to keep saying yes?\n\nAbout Maddie’s Monthly Foster Connection:\nJoin us on the first Thursday of every month to discuss successful foster innovations and programs\, collaborate with others in the field\, answer questions and talk through complex foster-related issues. \nWho should join: Foster managers\, coordinators\, volunteers and any staff who are interested in learning about what’s working in foster programs. \nYou only need to register once for all meetings: https://maddies.fund/MonthlyFosterRegistration \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 Foster Connection group on Maddie’s Pet Forum https://maddies.fund/monthlyfosterconnectionMPF \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/MonthlyFosterRegistration
