Improve safety and reduce liability at your shelter with CARS.

 

In this on-line program, we provide in-depth support and coaching on how to use our objective risk assessment framework to make timely and humane outcomes decisions. In addition to the planned lecture content and assignments, we offer office hours sessions regularly – this is a great opportunity to bring a case to discuss and apply the CARS framework in real time.

 

CARS is an invaluable resource for leadership teams, behavior teams, operations leadership, veterinary leadership, and any other individuals involved in outcomes decisions. We also offer on-site support for graduates of the CARS program at an additional cost.
