We’re collaborating to promote compassion fatigue resiliency in research animal personnel.
Animal research personnel are exposed to animal suffering, euthanasia, and social stigma while deeply caring for research animals. As a result, they can experience difficult emotions leading to workplace stress and compassion fatigue.
The 3Rs Collaborative has created extensive materials to promote compassion fatigue resiliency for our field. This includes a resource hub for individuals and institutional support resources. The institutional resources are being formally evaluated via a 3-year longitudinal survey.
If you are interested in contributing to the creation and revisions of additional materials, email info@3rc.org to get involved.
