Foster to Adopt Programs: Supportive pathways from shelter to home - MMFC webcast

Speakers:
Lauren Nickerson, Executive Director of Hawaii Island Humane Society
Katie Hutchinson, Outcomes Manager, Pima Animal Care Center

At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Hawaii Island Humane Society launched their Foster-to-Adopt program as a means to get pets out of the shelter and into homes during a time when the public was not able to enter the shelters. The program was such a success for people and animals that it endured even after the shelter was able to open their doors again. Over time, the program has evolved to best meet the needs of the animals, adopters, and the organization. This presentation will walk you through the policies and procedures of Hawaii Island Humane Society's Foster-to-Adopt program and make it easy for you to implement in your own organization.
