Hi!
My name is Xena Warrior Princess Dog and I'm here with my
human, Stephanie Vance. When she's not giving me walks and
belly rubs, Stephanie is also the "Advocacy Guru"
of AdVanced Advocacy. She set this page up to help people
like you help animals like me (well, animals that aspire to
be like me...)

Taking
Action for Animals Conference (July 16-18, 2005 in Washington, DC)
Follow-up
from the Effective Advocacy Session on July 17, 2005
It was great
meeting many of you at the Taking Action for Animals conference
in Washington, DC. As a follow-up to the event, I've posted both
PowerPoints (mine and Nancy Perry's) and my handouts from the session.
And for those
who asked, YES! I do this kind of speaking for a living and would
love to speak with you about offering a presentation for your organization.
I've worked with a number of national, state and local-level groups
to help them be more effective in the advocacy arena and would love
to do the same for you. Click here to
learn about my workshops.
Please feel
free to e-mail me at info@advocacyguru.com
if you have any questions. Thanks again and Happy Advocating!
