Webinar - 3/26/26 - Bridging the gap: Shelters and wildlife coexistence - Humane World for Animals
2026-03-26 10:00 - 11:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Virtual
Through Humane World’s Wild Neighbors program, we work with animal care and control partners to incorporate wildlife into their mission of animal protection. Animal control facilities are increasingly tasked with responding to wildlife issues in their community, but standard operating procedures often stand in the way of achieving humane outcomes for wildlife.
This discussion will combine what we already know with what we are learning from our partners to provide shelters with more resources for staff and the public on humanely solving conflicts with wildlife. The benefits include programs and frameworks for humane outcomes for wildlife in your community, a reduced workload for officers in the field, and a greater awareness in the community about how to solve problems with wildlife.

Webinar - 3/26/26 - Learn What the Monster Likes… and Feed It! Bridging the Animal Rights/Welfare/Control Gap by Focusing on The Link between Animal Abuse and Human Violence - NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
2026-03-26 12:00 - 13:15
Is your organization rooted in animal rights, animal welfare, or animal control? In the eyes of many government officials and funders, it doesn’t matter—because animal issues often take a back seat to public safety concerns. What does get their attention is the human impact. By demonstrating The Link between animal abuse and human violence, you can shift the conversation—and the priorities.
This webinar introduces the critical connections between animal cruelty and domestic violence, child maltreatment, and elder abuse. You’ll learn how to leverage these connections to increase public recognition, attract new funding, and elevate your organization’s relevance in broader conversations about safety and well-being.
This webinar has been certified by the National Animal Care & Control Association and is approved for 1 Continuing Education Unit.
