Invitation to Join the Animal Advocacy Network of Indiana:
The Animal Advocacy Network of Indiana (AANI) is an e-mail based network that was established
to provide a source of information on animal-related issues in Indiana, and a means of easily
communicating with other animal welfare advocates. The over 240 AANI members include staff
from animal shelters and rescue groups, volunteers, and citizens. If you haven’t been involved in
advocating for animals before, this is a great way to get started! It is a network for anyone who is
interested in following and getting involved with animal-related issues!
The AANI network consists of e-mails on the following:


It truly is a pleasure for me to be able to provide this service and to work with others who also
care about the welfare of animals.
