SUMMARY:Online Event – 5/25/21 – Maddie’s® Candid Conversations Series – Dr. Jyothi V. Robertson\, Shelter Strategies – Maddie’s Fund
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an open\, informal 30-minute conversation and Q+A with Dr. Jyothi V. Robertson\, President and Founder of JVR Shelter Strategies. \nIn this discussion with Maddie’s Fund Executive Leadership Team member Mary Ippoliti-Smith\, Dr. Robertson postulates how different fields (environment\, education\, etc.) are interwoven\, and that relying on an animal-centric focus keeps us from examining some of the systemic\, root causes of the issues we face. Bringing new conversations to animal welfare can lead to more diversity\, inclusion\, equity that will offer a fresh perspective on how an individual may face multiple types of overlapping discrimination and how that affects our work and success. \nAfterwards\, continue the conversation with Dr. Robertson on Maddie’s Pet Forum. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://maddiesfund-org.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYscu-qrj0oHdTfvmmzypVmIwzFVQ39Ak78

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/27/21 - Refresh Your Compassionate Heart: An Everyday Tool for You and Your Team - Texas Unites (fee applies)

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/27/21 - Pet Stores\, Puppy Mills and Local Action to End the Problem - Texas Unites (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Over 300 communities\, including several in Texas\, have banned the sale of puppy mill dogs in pet stores. These humane pet store ordinances are drying up the market for puppy mill dogs and helping to easing the suffering of breeding dogs who are routinely confined in tiny\, filthy cages until they can no longer produce another litter of puppies. Passing a local ordinance\, even if your community does not currently have a puppy selling pet store\, is a vital step in helping bring about an end to this cruel business model. \nYou will hear from two speakers who have decades of lobbying experience and have been at the forefront of this campaign. You’ll learn how to get an ordinance drafted\, introduced and enacted into law. You’ll learn what hurdles that puppy mill lobbyist will throw in your path\, and how to overcome them. This workshop is a must for those who are passionate about ending puppy mills. \nPresenters \nLauren Loney\, Texas State Director\, State Affairs\, The Humane Society of the United States\nAmy Jesse\, Public Policy Director\, Stop Puppy Mills Campaign\, The Humane Society of the United States \nConnect to this webinar on Your Conference Connection Page.  *Password required*\nPassword is provided with registration confirmation. \n***** \nLike this topic?  Register Today! \nYour $49 registration fee provides access to all webinars May 19 through July 1. \nAll sessions are CE approved through DSHS and AAWA with selected sessions approved through TBVME. \nRegistration will remain open throughout the Virtual Learning Series.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/27/21 - Overcoming Adoption Barriers: Where Marketing Meets Policy - American Pets Alive!
DESCRIPTION:The intersection of marketing and adoption policies is where the magic happens for reducing barriers to adoption. The role of marketing is to help define our programs for the community\, communicate how to use our services\, and advertise how people can get involved. But great marketing alone can’t increase adoptions if the experience of adopting isn’t supported by good customer service\, open adoption policies\, and solution-driven programs. This webinar looks at how our marketing efforts\, from our social media posts to our adoption bios\, can welcome more community members to our mission. We’ll also discuss how our adoption policies can support this mindset of welcoming our entire community while reducing barriers and saving more pets. \nJoin Clare Callison\, our Maddie’s® Director of National Pet Supply and Demand\, and Caitlin Quinn\, Director of Operations at HeARTs Speak\, for this insightful webinar on May 27 at 5pm CDT. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/3816189358603/WN_9qb1cBvMQgmJhJVLEqcxPw

DESCRIPTION:If there’s one thing you’ve shared with us over the duration of this pandemic\, it’s how beneficial more control over shelter intake and\, more broadly\, the shelter environment has been for both staff and animals.

What’s working and where are the biggest wins being gained so far? Where are the biggest challenges and fears still hanging out? What’s the one thing still standing in your way? \nCASCAR room link: https://sheltermedicine.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJQtdO-srDItyMz7xy-ZsncbcFa6s8kKZg

She always dreamed of being a veterinarian\, during high school she started an internship program that provided her the opportunity to work as a veterinary technician in a clinic located in Palm Desert. \nShortly after starting the internship\, she quickly realized how many dogs were being euthanized for behavior issues and how little access there was to trainers in the area. Tabitha discussed her concerns with the veterinarians and with their encouragment started to pursue her education in canine behavior. \nTabitha spent the next year raiding local libraries and reading every book on training\, behavior and the evolution of canids. She eventually graduated highschool and continued working as a veterinary technician while training her own dogs and horses. \nTabitha has been training professionally for over 17 years and handling behavior cases for the past 9 years. She is currently certified with CPDT-KA\, ACDBC\, FF-C\, CTDI\, and is working towards PCBC-A.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/3/21 - Choice in the Shelter Setting - Texas Unites (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:The shelter can inherently limit an animal’s ability to make choices.  How an animal performs in the shelter-setting can be greatly influenced by their collective experiences while in your care\, beginning as soon as they walk through your doors.  How can we change our behavior to enable more choice for the animals in our care?  Join Allison Hartlage\, KPA-CTP\, CBCC-KA\, CTC\, CNWI and Manager of Animal Training and Behavior at the Humane Society of Boulder Valley to explore this important topic. \nPresenter \nAllison Hartlage\, KPA-CTP\, CBCC-KA\, CTC\, CNWI and Manager of Animal Training and Behavior\, Humane Society of Boulder Valley \nConnect to this webinar on Your Conference Connection Page.  *Password required*\nPassword is provided with registration confirmation. \n***** \nLike this topic?  Register Today! \nYour $49 registration fee provides access to all webinars May 19 through July 1. \nAll sessions are CE approved through DSHS and AAWA with selected sessions approved through TBVME. \nRegistration will remain open throughout the Virtual Learning Series.

SUMMARY:Online Event - 6/3/21 - Maddie's Candid Conversation Series - Gabrielle Chapman & Justin Marceau - Maddie's Fund
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special edition of Maddie’s Candid Conversation where we will be talking with Justin Marceau\, author of Beyond Cages: Animal Law and Criminal Punishment. The discussion will center around the role of fines and fees\, civil penalties\, conviction and punishment in achieving positive outcomes for animals – and how current enforcement models can in fact produce negative consequences for companion animals which can hinder the goal of lifesaving. Gabrielle Chapman\, a social justice analyst\, will facilitate the conversation\, moderate your questions about how systemic racism plays a role\, and share ways we can more effectively support companion animals and their families. \nAbout the speakers:\nGabrielle Chapman is a Social Justice Analyst at The Woodrow Consulting Firm. She formerly worked as a Senior Social Justice Analyst with The Humane Society of the United States’ Pets for Life program where she lent her expertise about how systemic racism is perpetuated within animal welfare. She helps bring forth an increased consciousness about systemic racism and other forms of oppression which can hinder growth and well-being for communities and their companion animals. Her consulting work is informed by her knowledge across racial justice\, food/land justice\, and animal rights/welfare\, using a One Health model that strives to develop solutions and build relationships from a socio-ecological perspective. \nJustin F. Marceau is a Professor of Law and the Animal Legal Defense Fund Professor at the University of Denver. He is also the Brooks Institute Faculty Research Scholar of Animal Law and Policy\, and an affiliated faculty member with the Institute for Human Animal Connections at the Graduate School of Social Work. Professor Marceau also serves as the reporter for the pattern criminal jury instruction committee of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit\, and he is a Fellow of the Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics. \n\n\n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://maddiesfund-org.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAodOyorjstG9QY17u6vkbLU49uVSD6tI59
