    Posted 2 days ago

    I'm putting together the second volume of The Shift to Prevention, a working handbook of prevention programs that any county or organization can pick up and run. The method is combination, not copy. We studied the best programs in the country, took the parts that work, and wrote each one up so a small org can start it without reinventing the wheel.

    Here is where you come in. We want the real operational detail, the part that never makes it into a press release. If you run a program that keeps animals out of the shelter, moves them through faster once they are in, or supports them after adoption, tell us how it actually works on the ground:

    • How the program runs, step by step
    • The materials, forms, and templates you use
    • Supplies and equipment it takes
    • Staff and volunteer roles, and roughly how many hours
    • Rough cost to operate, and how you fund it
    • What you wish you had known before you started, and the one thing that makes it work

    The more honest the detail, the more useful it is. The programs that fail quietly teach us as much as the ones that work.

    Here is the trade. Every program in the book names its sources. If what you share fills a gap or sharpens a chapter, we credit you and your organization by name as a research resource for that program. Good prevention work should travel, and a lot of it was built by the people on this forum.

    Reply here with what you run, or email us at angels@animal-angels.org and we will follow up with specific questions. Spay/neuter access, crisis stabilization, housing, community cats, found-pet diversion, fostering, post-adoption support, youth education, any of it.
