I would love to chat with you. I am not sure what you mean by a hub. Can you explain? Melissa

Hi Melissa - I'm in the Bay Area, but if it's helpful, I'm opening a community hub for dogs and humans in April. I've been chatting with a few people who work with shelters and rescues up here about including them in events at the Hub. And I agree that foster workshops are very important! I ran a poll of people recently in my neighborhood's whatsapp group to ask what hesitations people have when it comes to fostering and all the top responses can be remedies with education. Cost wasn't a factor for anyone who responded.
Please let me know if I can be helpful!

Hi Kelly,
Yes I would love to speak with you. I am planning a foster workshop for April and I want to get my rescue/non profit partners on the call so I will reach out to them to see if there is a good time for this coming Tuesday. Thanks, Melissa

Hi Melissa,
Your non-profit sounds awesome! We've recently done several workshops where we bring local shelters & rescues together (in person and online) and I'm happy to share what I've learned if you'd like to meet. If you're interested, you can pick a day & time on my Calendly and I'll add the Zoom link once it's set:

I work with a non-profit called "Reducing Animal Stress." We are interested in running foster workshops in different parts of Los Angeles that spell out the nuts and bolts of fostering. We had our first workshop in October that was not well attended despite a fair amount of outreach. How do I engage rescues and shelters to come speak and also increase attendance? Thank you, Melissa Klaskin Levy
