SUMMARY:Online Event - 9/17/24 - All Call - From Policy to Practice: Addressing Gaps in Emotional Support Animal Documentation for Vulnerable Communities - California for All Animals
DESCRIPTION:Submit your housing-related questions for the 9/16 All Call presenters! HEART LA’s Zaira Bernal (Paralegal) and Diana Cruz (Program Director/Law Clerk) will explore common challenges individuals with disabilities face when seeking the required documentation for Emotional Support Animals (ESAs)\, focusing on the limitations of current policy and real-world hurdles. \nAbout the presentation: The call will begin with a brief overview of the Fair Housing Act (FHA)\, highlighting its protections and requirements for individuals who rely on ESAs to mitigate their disabilities. The core of the presentation delves into three case studies illustrating common obstacles\, including medical professionals’ reluctance due to liability concerns\, and the systemic lack of healthcare resources available to low-income and marginalized communities. The discussion will emphasize the sources of resistance\, such as misinformation about ESA roles and barriers in healthcare access. \nThe presentation concludes by offering practical solutions HEART LA has implemented to address these challenges. These include facilitating self-certification for individuals receiving disability benefits in California\, partnering with organizations to connect clients with healthcare providers\, directly engaging with cautious medical professionals to educate and alleviate concerns\, and training caseworkers and other qualified third parties on how to issue ESA documentation. Through this comprehensive approach\, the organization aims to expand access to housing for those who need ESAs\, creating a path for legal protections to be applied effectively in practice. \nSave the date for Part 2 of our conversation with Zaira and Diana! Zaira and Diana will return to the All Call on October 1 for a conversation on addressing landlord resistance to ESA protections. What do you need to know to advance disability justice and help people and pets at risk of eviction stay together in your community? Submit your questions for the presenters. \nAbout the All Call: The All Call is a twice-monthly\, California community call for animal well-being professionals that occurs on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday. The one-hour call is a dedicated space to share and learn from each other.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 9/17/24 - Collaborative Cat Management Programs - LG\, SG\, NFP and Landcare Working Together - Getting 2 Zero
DESCRIPTION:The Keeping Cats Safe at Home project is a four-year behavioural change project being run by RSPCA NSW in conjunction with eleven Councils across NSW\, including Weddin Shire. It is funded by the NSW Government through its Environmental Trust. The project aims to reduce the impact pet cats have on wildlife and improve domestic cats’ health and safety by encouraging responsible cat ownership. Weddin Landcare worked with the local Council Ranger to apply for the program to help instigate cat management programs in the Weddin Shire. The project began with community consultation\, which guided project activities for the Shire. Together\, Weddin Shire Council\, Weddin Landcare and RSPCA NSW then implemented a free desexing and microchipping program; distributed project messages though communication materials and promotions; delivered educational sessions to local primary schools about the benefits of keeping cats at home; and offered an incentive program for backyard Catnets enclosures to assist cat owners to contain their cat to their property. \nThe program has been incredibly successful for our small community (population <4\,000) with over 300 cats desexed to date\, 30 Catnets enclosures distributed to local residents\, over 100 primary school children and a significant drop in the number of complaints about cats and unwanted litters being impounded. This incredibly positive project has resulted in a unique partnership between the organisations involved and improved relationships between the local Council Ranger and local residents. \nThis event will be recorded and the recording will be available the day after the event. \nPresenter: Melanie Cooper – Landcare Coordinator\, Weddin landcare\nMelanie Cooper a part-time Local Landcare Coordinator for Weddin Landcare\, based in Grenfell\, Central West NSW. With a B.
