Serving Our Community: Species360 response to the COVID-19 outbreak

Update 8.4.20: For resources from our partners around the world, we are continuing to share key links here.

(13 March 2020)

To our Species360 community, 

We would like to express our support and concern for you, your organizations, and community during the current coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. We have heard from many of you that your institutions have had to reduce hours, adjust staffing, or close to the public. We know that even when you take steps like these, the important work of caring for and treating animals continues.

As you continue your work, we want you to know that we are always here to support your needs. The Species360 Member Support, Training, and Development teams remain available to answer questions and serve your needs, at Support@Species360.org.  

We also want to inform you that we are doing our part to help slow the spread. Out of concern for our staff, their family members, and the community at large, Species360 decided to temporarily require that staff work from home. We have also cancelled all business travel and conference participation at this time. As we learn more, we will continue to adjust our plans.

Together, we will continue to work to support our global community during this time. We hope you, your family, and staff all stay safe.

Best regards, 

Jim Guenter, CEO
