Webcast: Maddie's Million Pet Challenge - Four Rights: The Right Care

When:  May 10, 2022 from 12:00 PM to 01:00 PM (PT)
Associated with  Animal Welfare Professionals
Join the Maddie's Million Pet Challenge Team for the 4th of their 5 part series.

Offering the Right Care means animals are not left in dangerous circumstances to cause harm, suffer, or die because the shelter can’t admit them; nor are they are admitted to a crowded shelter when there are better options within the community. You’re doing this work because you want to serve animals and people in the shelter and in the community, but in order to provide the best care, you have to know—and make sure you’re operating within—your capacity for care. Within the shelter’s walls, the Right Care encompasses staffing, housing and programs to meet each animal’s basic needs.

In this webcast, you’ll learn how to provide humane housing and match community need to community capacity and shelter services to ensure all animals receive the care that is right for them.

The webcast has been pre-approved for 1.0 Certified Animal Welfare Administrator continuing education credits by The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement and by the National Animal Care & Control Association.

The information contained in webinars and related materials has been prepared, compiled, or provided by Maddie's Fund as a service to webinar participants and is not intended to constitute the rendering of legal, consulting, or other professional services of any kind.
