Animal Welfare Professionals

Monday, MONDAY, MONDAY! (I hope you said that in an increasingly louder booming "salesly" voice)

That's right-- the next Shelter & Rescue Support call will be held on Monday, 10/4, at 8:00am Pacific with HASS's host with the most, @Bobby Mann! And just when you thought it was going to be about ONE super awesome topic... we're gonna double-down... there will be TWO super awesome topics! Check out the sessions below. 

Session One - @Caitlin Quinn:  HeARTs Speak is a nonprofit organization on a mission to make effective marketing and communications more attainable for shelters, rescues, fosters, and volunteers. Making genuine and lasting connections with community members is central to working with people and pets, so HeARTs Speak provides training, guidance, and turnkey creative tools that are custom-built for the unique work of animal welfare.

Caitlin is excited to talk about why the organization is so passionate about redefining "marketing" for our field and about the role of community engagement in building trust, demystifying operations, and making programs more impactful.  

Session Two - @Gina Knepp:  Join Gina Knepp, with Michelson Found Animals, as she chats with grantees from the recent Maddie's/Michelson No Place Like Home Challenge. Incredible strides have been made with increasing lost pet reunification. Hear directly from award winners to learn what worked and what your organizations can be doing differently to keep people with their pets. The list of organizations will include Marin Humane, Pet Adoption League of Gem County, Animal Rescue League of Iowa, Portsmouth Humane Society, LifeLine Animal Project, Washoe County and Oakland Animal Services.
