From February 25th – 27th, attendees joined CCP and United Spay Alliance as they partnered up to offer a three-day virtual conference that focused on all aspects of spay/neuter. Included were presentations from all sorts of animal welfare experts on topics ranging from starting a low-cost spay/neuter program and funding spay/neuter services, to raising awareness in the community and more!
