Thank you to the members of the California State Assembly for their strong, bi-partisan support for SB 1233 sponsored by Senator Scott Wilk, which passed on a vote of 59-0. If signed by Governor Newson, SB 1233 would create High-Quality, High-Volume Spay/Neuter (HQHVSN) certification programs for students and currently licensed veterinary professionals at both of California’s prestigious veterinary schools. The bill is supported by a large coalition of veterinary professionals, animal shelters, and animal welfare groups seeking to address the pet overpopulation problem in the state. A special note of thanks to Assemblymember Brian Maienschein for presenting the bill on the Assembly Floor for Senator Wilk, as well as to Assemblymember Buffy Wicks and Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas for their leadership.

Joining hands to celebrate AAPI and Mental Health Awareness Month, our team shared a beautiful event together! It was quite an experience – from appreciating Asian art and savoring authentic Asian teas to engaging in mindful activities like origami and journaling. Topping it off was a mesmerizing tea ceremony led by a tea master that truly embodied the spirit of togetherness. A moment of communal wellbeing, embracing diverse cultures and bonding with colleagues – a peaceful and precious retreat right in our workspace. #AAPI #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #WorkplaceWellbeing #sfspca Looking for the workplace where you belong? 👉 https://lnkd.in/dtZ6J8Wc
