Jennifer Brent | On the California Wildlife Center's taking responsibility for the protection of native wildlife through rehabilitation, education and conservation (ENCORE s2.7)

This week we are rebroadcasting our conversation with Jennifer Brent, Executive Director of the California Wildlife Center.

Our nature practice guide Natasha Deganello Giraudie sets the tone for us with a beautiful Land Blessing. Together we can deepen our relationship to the more -than-human world at this critical time. We encourage you to take it slow ... find a tree to sit under and relax into this important conversation.

California Wildlife Center takes responsibility for the protection of native wildlife through rehabilitation, education, and conservation. It is dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of native California species, who otherwise would be left to suffer from the effects of human encroachment, habitat destruction and environmental damage.

Jennifer Brent has been working with animals for over 13 years most recently as the Executive Director of California Wildlife Center. She has a passion for the preservation of native species and the environment and has been at the helm to help over 82,000 wild California animals.

She was previously at the Jason Debus Heigl Foundation, the Found Animals Foundation and served on the Los Angeles Department of Animal Services' Commission.

California Wildlife Center offers all of their programs at zero cost to the finder. They help over 4,300 animals each year and answer over 30,000 phone calls. This work is funded by individual donations as they receive no sustaining government money. Your kind offerings are greatly appreciated.
