Making a Difference
Advocacy Networks
Fundamental change can be accomplished only through the collaborative efforts of diverse groups who come together to work on innovative solutions.
Community Compassion
Systemic change happens when communities learn to enhance the human-animal bond, improve safety, and increase their compassion for animals.
OAA Resource Directory
When resources are critical to action and advocacy, it is important to have a source for statewide connections that help Ohio and Ohio animals.
Pet Assistance
To support struggling families and their pets, we provide valuable resources such as a list of programs designed for seniors and low-income families.
Pet Protection
We advocate for at-risk family members and safety planning for their pet(s) because we recognize a link between animal abuse and family violence.
Wildlife Protection
An opportunity exists for a new approach to learning how we can coexist with wildlife and advocate for protective policies at the state and local level.
