CERTIFICATION DESCRIPTION: Join us to get "Fear Free Certified!" The Fear Free Shelter Program aims to provide training that is suitable for all individuals involved in the care and oversight of shelter and rescue animals—from medical and behavioral staff to intake, reception, kennel, and cattery staff to animal control officers, adoption counselors, foster caregivers, and shelter volunteers. The Fear Free Shelter Program is FREE to volunteers and is a 5 hour online training course intended for all types of sheltering organizations with the goal of achieving a Fear Free culture through the united actions and attitudes of shelter team members. For many sheltering organizations, improving available animal housing facilities will also be an important consideration, but even so, embracing a Fear Free culture will improve welfare until such changes in the physical layout can be made. This training is a pre-requisite to any programs working with animals at our shelter. To begin the certification process: 1.
