Especially in animal welfare organizations, resilience is a key component of a productive and healthy team. Does your organization’s culture support your people in the face of constant emotional toll? This webinar will focus on building personal resilience. Attendees will learn how to recognize and address compassion fatigue triggers in their animal care work, build support and coping skills, and create a meaningful self-care plan through a variety of evidence-based resources. Send your staff and volunteers to this important session (perfect for a staff meeting).
This program (both live and recorded) has been approved for:
- 1 Certified Animal Welfare Administrator continuing education credit
- 1 CE by the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) for Texas Animal Control Officers
This session is part three of the five-part Going Through Hell? Keep Going! webinar series.
