The Taking Action for Animals conference will be held July
16-18, at the Renaissance Washington Hotel in Washington, DC.
http://www.takingactionforanimals.org/
Please join Animal Protection Institute, the Doris Day
Animal League, Farm Sanctuary, HSUS, PETA, and others to network with
national leaders and grassroots activists as we celebrate recent victories
and outline a vision for the future of animal protection; learn skills in
lobbying, fundraising, media relations, investigations, humane education,
developing successful campaigns, and much more with in-depth training
workshops; and participate in hands-on activities such as lobbying on
Capitol Hill, protesting animal cruelty, and educating the public. All in
a convenient downtown location close to restaurants, shops, monuments, and
public transportation.
Share experiences, celebrate successes, address current
challenges and learn how to:
* Influence the political process
* Gain lasting legal protection for animals
* Get the message across by working with the media and the corporate
sector
* Run dynamic and powerful awareness raising campaigns
* Build a strong movement using leading edge techniques in fund
development, market research, grassroots organization and web advocacy
* Use a range of approaches to help animals from investigations and
sanctuary management to effective protests and humane education.
Outside of formal sessions, opportunities will be provided
for networking, planning activity and learning from others in the
movement. Day Three will offer the chance to take part in activities to
help animals at a Lobby Day on Capitol Hill or an organized protest. Come
and be part of this unique and exciting event and build our movement to
make a real and lasting difference for animals into the future.
