On Thursday, August 21st, the Federation and the NYS Department of Agriculture and Markets held a Standards Webinar for Foster-Based Rescues. You can watch the entire webinar below–please block out an hour and 20 minutes or so.
We hope you find the video and supporting materials helpful. Over the last three years, the NYSAPF Education Fund has provided low-cost/no-cost consulting Standards Consulting Services to close to 90 organizations across the state. These consults provide you with a road map of what needs to be done to meet the standards. For more information on those consults, click here.
Below are more resources and information for foster-based rescues to use.
