Dates: July 7–9, 2022
Location: Raleigh, North Carolina

We are excited to announce that in 2022, the Best Friends National Conference will return as a live, in-person event, to be held in Raleigh, North Carolina. During this event, you’ll connect with animal welfare leaders from across the country, unite with like-minded animal welfare supporters and gain knowledge to save the lives of more homeless pets in your community.

Who should attend? Everyone! Whether you’re the director of a local shelter, a volunteer at an animal organization, an animal control officer, a veterinarian, an adoption counselor or just someone who wants to learn more about animal welfare, this event is for you.
