Webinar - 4/30/26 - One Health, Two Patients: The Human–Animal Bond in Homeless Health - Center for Pet Family Well-being
2026-04-30 11:00 - 12:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Virtual
When it comes to healthcare for pet owners experiencing homelessness, the One Health clinical care model is proving to both improve access to veterinary care as well as human healthcare. Established in Seattle in 2018 in a collaboration between the University of Washington’s Center for One Health Research and Washington State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, the One Health Clinic integrates veterinary and human primary care to benefit both members of the family.
In this 1-hour webinar we’ll examine the success of integrated human and veterinary care on healthcare, homeless services, and housing, and explore how this model of care can be modified to meet the needs of your community.

Webinar - 5/13/26 - Avoiding Costly PAGA Claims: A Practical Compliance Guide for Animal Shelters & Nonprofits - CalAnimals
2026-05-13 10:00 - 11:00
California’s Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) continues to create significant legal and financial exposure for nonprofit organizations, including animal shelters and animal control agencies. Many well-intentioned employers are unaware of common wage-and-hour compliance gaps that can quickly lead to costly claims.
In this practical and informative webinar, employment defense attorney Mandeep Rupal will break down the most common pitfalls that lead to PAGA lawsuits and provide clear, actionable strategies to help organizations reduce risk. Attendees will gain insight into key compliance areas, including meal and rest breaks, timekeeping practices, employee classification, and documentation practices.
Designed specifically for animal welfare organizations, this session will equip leaders and managers with the tools they need to proactively strengthen compliance while continuing to focus on their mission.
Presenter: Mandeep Rupal, Attorney at Law

Webinar - 5/21/26 - Raccoons, Reports and Real-Time Maps: Using Data and Maps to Tell Wild Stories and Shape Smart Policies - NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
2026-05-21 10:00 - 11:15
Whether it’s responding to calls about baby birds or guiding residents through raccoon encounters, many shelters are more involved with wildlife than they realize.
But here’s the catch: if you’re not tracking it, you’re missing half the story.
In this webinar, you’ll learn how to create a simple yet powerful wildlife tracking system and see how that data can transform into compelling maps and visual stories using low-cost (or even free) tools. We’ll also feature a real-world case study from our Shelter Mentorship partners at Harker Heights Pet Adoption Center in Texas, showing how data tracking reshaped their approach to wildlife and community engagement.
Whether you’re an ACO, shelter manager, or community outreach specialist, this webinar will equip you with practical tools to track and visualize wildlife and field service data (including TNR or street dog programs), make smarter decisions for both domestic and wild animals, advocate for resources through clear visual evidence, and build community trust through transparency and education.
Let’s turn that “we don’t take wildlife calls” into “we’re leading the way on wildlife care and conflict prevention.”
Presenters:
Shiloh Wester, Shelter Administrator for the Harker Heights Pet Adoption Center
Grace Kahle, Program Manager for the Urban Wildlife team at Humane World for Animals
This webinar has been certified by the National Animal Care & Control Association and is approved for 1 Continuing Education Unit.
