Camp Maddie is back! Join us for the third edition of Camp Maddie, a free virtual half-day event on Wednesday, November 13th from 9:00 AM - 1 PM Pacific (12:00 PM - 4 PM Eastern).
Across the country, many people face tough choices due to housing restrictions, often having to give up their pets. At Camp Maddie: Pet-Inclusive Housing Edition, we will cover a variety of topics related to pet housing in presentations, videos and Q&A sessions.
Presenters from My Dog is My Home, My Pit Bull is Family, HEART LA, and Michelson Found Animals Pet Inclusive Housing Initiative will share ideas about:
· Understanding human homelessness response systems for better animal welfare advocacy and program design
· Dog-inclusive housing
· Legal protections for tenants with pets and the eviction process
· Engaging rental housing providers with pet-inclusive approaches and pet owners with information they need to access pet-inclusive rental housing
Camp Maddie is perfect for those interested or involved in animal shelters or foster-based organizations, social workers and anyone passionate about keeping pets and people together.
At the end of the free half-day event, presenters will share a collection of resources to help you apply what you learn in your own organization and community. By embracing pet-inclusive policies, we can help families stay together and create neighborhoods where pets are valued as part of the family. Come make new friends and help make housing accessible to all members of the family!
