3rd Annual Animal Advocacy Day

We are excited to announce the 3rd Annual Animal Advocacy Day! This inspiring event unites animal advocates, state lawmakers, and animal welfare leaders across California for a day of action at the State Capitol. Animal Advocacy Day raises awareness about legislative efforts to help address critical access-to-care issues and veterinary shortages in California.

Last year, thanks to your support:

• We successfully advocated for SB 1233, which allows California veterinary schools to develop specialized programs to combat the pet overpopulation crisis, by establishing high-quality, high-volume spay and neuter certification programs to be offered as elective coursework to students and practicing veterinarians
• We effectively stopped AB 2265, a bill that imposed unworkable burdens on shelters and posed significant challenges for shelter animals—a major win for animal welfare!

These achievements wouldn’t have been possible without your participation and dedication.

We hope you’ll join us again this year to continue making a meaningful impact for animals in our state.

Stay tuned for RSVP details coming in early March.
