SUMMARY:Webinar - 9/11/25 - Maddie's Insights - Gatekeeping Pet Ownership: The Impacts of Adoption Discrimination - Maddie's Fund
DESCRIPTION:The animal welfare field has been discussing low-barrier adoption processes as a best practice for more than a decade\, yet recent research by Companions and Animals for Reform and Equity has found that BIPOC families are still more likely than white families to be denied during the adoption process. The findings highlight the critical need to move discussions from “low-barrier adoptions” to “making pet ownership accessible to all.” \nAttendees will learn about: \n• the prevalence and impact of shelter/rescue adoption discrimination in four U.S. cities (Atlanta\, Philadelphia\, Miami\, Minneapolis)\n• solutions for increasing access to pet ownership for BIPOC families \nEarn continuing education credit from The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement towards 1.0 CAWA CEs. This webinar has also been pre-approved for 1.0 continuing education credits by the National Animal Care & Control Association (NACA). It has also been approved for 1 hour of continuing education credit in jurisdictions which recognize RACE approval. \nHave questions or comments related to this topic?
