| Beta Testers Wanted: New PPHE Module for Animal Shelter Professionals (in collaboration with Open Door School)
PPHE, in collaboration with Open Door School, is inviting animal shelter and animal welfare professionals to participate in beta testing for our upcoming learning module: Biases and Inclusion in Animal Welfare.
This module is designed with the real-world experiences of shelters and rescue organizations in mind, exploring how bias can show up in daily operations, policies, and interactions-and how more inclusive practices can strengthen outcomes for animals, staff, volunteers, and the communities you serve.
We are seeking a limited group of up to 25 beta testers to review the module and share feedback before its wider release.
🔹 Who should participate: Animal shelter staff, leadership, volunteers, and partners are especially encouraged to apply. Others working in animal welfare, One Health, public health, or related fields are also welcome.
🔹 How to sign up: Please email @Candice Hinkle at chodges1@utk.edu, if you are interested in participating. Your insights will help refine this module and support more inclusive and effective animal welfare practices. We appreciate your interest and support. |
