Beyond “No-Kill”: the Evolving Role of Animal Shelter in Our Communities
Starts Tue, Oct 20, 10:30 AM
About the class
This Seniors College talk at Alvernia University looks at what animal shelters do today and how that work has grown beyond temporary care for homeless pets. The session covers current challenges in animal welfare, common misunderstandings about what "no-kill" means, and the ways shelters are changing to meet community needs.
Ashley Mikulsky, Chief Executive Officer of the Animal Rescue League, leads the session and shares how her organization is adapting. It is part of Alvernia's Seniors College program, which is built for older adults who want to keep learning and trade ideas with others.
The class meets on a Tuesday morning at the McGlinn Conference Center, 460 Saint Bernardine Street in Reading. Bring a notebook if you like to take notes, and check the schedule panel for the current run. Sign up through the Alvernia Seniors College registration form linked with this listing.
