The Line That Was Crossed: Understanding Transgressions and Potentially Morally Injurious Events in Animal Care

In this episode of This Too Is Rescue, we explore Potentially Morally Injurious Events (PMIEs): the defining moments in animal care work that violate our deepest values, whether by our own hand, someone else’s, or through a specific type of violation related to broken trust. We name the types of moral transgressions that can leave invisible wounds and that have the potential to lead to moral injury.Want to go deeper?
