Shelter Learniverse and Industry-Wide Calendar

The AAWA Presents – It’s no secret that our nation is deeply divided along political and social lines. This is especially true right now. These divisions make it increasingly difficult for animal welfare organizations to develop messages that appeal to people on both sides of the divide. Join us for a session that will equip your organization with the tools your staff, volunteers, and board need to listen thoughtfully and communicate effectively with supporters who span the political and social spectrum. 

Chameleon Shelter Software Presents: This is the second class in a 3-part licensing series intended to help you become more efficient at licensing and generate revenue.

Karen Pryor Academy Presents: Join Ken Ramirez, KPCT’s Chief Training Officer, for a free hour-long virtual event live from The Ranch on Thursday, July 2 at 12:00 pm (PT). Ken will be joined by Kathy Sdao as she walks along the shoreline with her dog Smudge. They will discuss training, observational skills, and whatever comes up during the walk.

ASPCAPro Presents – Before resuming animal relocation programs amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s essential to consider whether it is legally permissible to resume, confirm that the benefits outweigh the risks, and evaluate the scope and readiness of the program in order to mitigate both human and animal disease transmission. This webinar will introduce attendees to a guide that was created to help organizations assess their program’s preparedness in resuming animal relocation operations.

NACA and the Justice Clearinghouse Present: Animal cruelty crimes generate unique and sensitive types of evidence. Some types of evidence, such as ammonia levels are transitory and require situation appropriate collection. Marks of animal struggling or suffering may be subtle but important to detect. Animals themselves may be evidence, whether living or deceased and they themselves present challenges at the crime scene and afterwards. This presentation will cover evidence recognition, documentation, preservation, and collection in a variety of types of animal cruelty crimes.

Chameleon Presents: WebInterest can connect you with potential adopters from PetHarbor.com, all with a click of a button. Well, that and a form they fill out. We send their information to you automatically, you save staff time and reach a wider audience.

CalAnimals Presents – for CalAnimals Members – One of the many ways sheltering services are changing is responding to the needs of pets living in the community.

We will look at the programs offered at Marin Humane and Ventura County Animal Services that assist owners in keeping their pets and preventing surrenders.
