Shelter Learniverse and Industry-Wide Calendar

Besty BnB Presents: In recognition of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, this webinar will explore how domestic pets cope with trauma and how we, as caregivers and advocates, can support their healing. This webinar will feature a special guest, Andria Gibbon, Founder & President of Protecting Paws for Life – an organization dedicated to supporting survivors of domestic violence and their beloved pets. Learn how trauma-informed care can be extended to the entire family, pets included.

The CVMA and SF SPCA Present: This webinar will explore how veterinarians and RVTs can play a vital role in improving outcomes for shelter animals—whether as a full-time career path, an occasional volunteer, or a supplement to private practice, while also gaining valuable experience not always seen in private practice.

Program for Pet Health Equity Presents: We’re excited to invite our One Health colleagues and community partners to join a special live session with the authors of Access to Veterinary Care: Barriers and Insights from Pet Families. This conversation will explore the key findings of the report, the barriers families face in accessing veterinary services, and how these challenges impact both human and animal health. Together, we’ll look ahead at what’s next — and how One Health collaboration can help drive lasting solutions.

There will be plenty of time for your questions after the presentation.

Abby Sage and Jennifer LaPlume will use forms they have developed to walk you through the pre-planning steps for an equine cruelty investigation, including on-site assessments and triage and the formation of an action plan backed up with owner resources.
