Dear Colleagues, this is just for you.

We’re trying something new to better connect with you about great things happening in animal welfare. Today we’re launching   #leadbyassociation, an enewsletter designed to connect you to resources, trending topics, innovations, and invitations to professional development opportunities. Let us know what you think of this new format ─ you can drop us a line anytime. Please forward this to your friends, because our strength is in our network. Together we are stronger!

─ Jim Tedford, CAWA, President and CEO
