Town Hall - 1/27/22 - Community-Supported Sheltering: Aligning all stakeholders in the welfare of animals in your community - Best Friends
2022-01-27 15:00 - 16:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Virtual
Community-supported sheltering is not just “the latest trend;” it’s a natural progression for shelters and communities that want to maximize lifesaving. Where once our industry frequently viewed the public with suspicion, today we are reaching outside the walls of our facilities to engage the community as an important partner in our lifesaving work. During this town hall, Best Friends staff will address confusion around the community-supported sheltering movement and discuss the powerful intersection when the roles of the shelter, field services, government and the public come together to support the welfare of animals in a community.
Following the presentation, there will be a Q&A. Submit your questions ahead of time during registration or live during the event using the chat box. If you are interested in this event but unable to attend live, you can register and you will receive the recording when it’s available.
