Exploring the new tool helping to improve the lives of animal shelter employees

Wellness for staff at today's animal shelters is very important, not just the animals, but for everyone. Joining Holly today is Best Friends Senior Manager of Learning Advancement, Aimee Charlton, and President and COO of Oklahoma Humane Society, Dana McCrory, plus Animal Welfare Superintendent of Oklahoma City, Jonathan Gary. They will discuss a new module on wellness in the Executive Leadership Certification program that is available to anyone. This wellness module was created by Tina Overgaard, Senior Instructional Designer and Learning Advancement Specialist, Caitlin Gill.
