    Posted 05-20-2026 06:29 AM

    We hope you can join us today!

    *Now approved for 1 Continuing Education (CE) credit through the National Association of Social Workers (NASW)!**

    This webinar explores the human-animal bond, grief following the loss of a pet or animal, and the role of interdisciplinary support. Pet loss can result in profound grief, yet this type of loss is often misunderstood or under-supported. Participants will examine how the human-animal bond is formed, common grief responses after pet loss, and distinct types of grief associated with these relationships. The session will also explore collaboration among veterinary, medical, mental health, and social service professionals to better support individuals navigating pet loss.

    **Learning Objectives:** Participants will learn to describe the human-animal bond and its significance; identify common grief responses; define and differentiate types of pet loss grief; and discuss interdisciplinary support opportunities.

    Participants seeking CE credit must attend the full webinar and complete any required evaluation or attendance verification.
