Special Invitation from the President: All Hands on Deck on July 29

July 4, 2026, Jim Tedford

Members of The Association, come join Jim for the annual Leadership Summit. Together we’ll work on solutions that will direct the field’s next steps on pet-inclusive housing

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

When we pull together to address big challenges, we come up with remarkable solutions. The pervasive lack of sufficient, affordable, pet-inclusive housing is one such challenge.  And addressing it will require us all to think big and to engage with policy makers as well as our friends in housing and human services. 


We’re going to do just that at the upcoming Leadership Summit on July 29, and we need all members of The Association at the table.  We’ll  hear from experts to ground us in the issue, and then come together to work on solutions that will direct the field’s next steps on pet-inclusive housing.

Whether you are a seasoned leader already mentoring others, or a rising star ready to grow and share your experience, I look forward to our work together. Learn more and register today.

See you online.

Jim
