Shelter Leaders Unite!

Shelter Leaders Unite brings together directors, managers, and key staff from shelters across Indiana to share practical tools that improve leadership, daily care, operations, and advocacy for animals. 

By attending, you help the Indiana Coalition of Animal Welfare understand your shelter’s realities — intake, staffing, policy hurdles — so we can continue to coordinate resources, training, and statewide support that keeps animals safer and treatment more humane.

Your insight shapes our shared agenda for animal welfare in Indiana.

There will be an opportunity for attendees to tour both shelters in the area.  Once you have selected your ticket for the event, please make sure to include the tours so we can ensure shelter staff are aware of how many visitors to expect. 

We begin the morning at 8:00 a.m. with a tour of Indianapolis Animal Care Services.  The tour will begin promptly at 8:30 a.m. and conclude at 10:00 a.m.
