SUMMARY:TGF WEBINAR: Parrots & Resilience: Overcome\, Adapt\, Thrive
DESCRIPTION:REGISTRATION LINK TO COME!\nPresented by Shauna Roberts and Julie Murad.  \nWhy do some parrots adapt and thrive through major life changes while others struggle? \nAt The Gabriel Foundation\, parrots and other companion birds come into our care from remarkably diverse circumstances and at every stage of life. Some have spent decades with one caregiver. Others have experienced multiple homes\, medical challenges\, shelter or zoo transfers\, abandonment\, the death or disability of a caregiver\, or other significant disruptions. \nFor more than three decades\, some of our greatest teachers have been the birds themselves. \nIn this webinar\, Shauna Roberts and Julie Murad will explore resilience in parrots through the lenses of animal welfare\, behavior\, learning\, and compassionate training. \nResilience is not simply expecting a bird to “get over” a difficult experience\, nor is it about toughening an animal up. It is a dynamic process shaped by an individual bird’s experiences\, relationships\, environment\, learning history\, and ability to cope with change. \nThoughtful training can help prepare parrots for both predictable and unexpected experiences. By clearly defining and teaching useful behaviors\, building fluency\, supporting behavioral flexibility\, and carefully introducing change\, we can help birds develop skills that make future challenges more manageable. \nWe will also look at resilience through the framework of the Five Domains of Animal Welfare: \nNutrition: Access to fresh water and appropriate\, nutritious food.\nPhysical Environment: Safe\, comfortable housing\, appropriate temperatures\, and opportunities for rest.\nHealth: Prevention\, recognition\, and treatment of illness\, injury\, and disease.\nBehavioral Interactions: Opportunities to explore\, play\, make choices\, interact\, and express species-appropriate behaviors.\nMental State: Supporting positive experiences such as comfort\, security\, interest\, and enjoyment while minimizing fear\, pain\, distress\, and boredom. \nAnimal welfare asks more than whether an animal is simply surviving. It asks how that individual is experiencing the conditions in which they live. \nBy combining behavioral science\, compassionate training practices\, and attention to welfare\, we can better support parrots as they recover from adversity\, adjust to change\, learn new skills\, and build the capacity to thrive. \nResilience is not just hope. It is something we can actively support.

SUMMARY:GivingTuesday
DESCRIPTION:GivingTuesday is a global day of generosity — a day when people around the world come together to support the causes and communities they care about. \nAt The Gabriel Foundation\, generosity takes many forms. It helps provide nutritious diets\, veterinary care\, enrichment\, safe housing\, behavioral support\, adoption services\, and lifelong sanctuary for parrots who need a place to call home. \nSome birds stay with us briefly before joining an adoptive family. Others need years of specialized care. Some will remain part of our sanctuary flock for life. Every one of them depends on a community of people who believe their lives matter. \nThis GivingTuesday\, you can help us continue providing thoughtful\, individualized care for parrots in need. \nEvery gift makes a difference for our flock.
