SUMMARY:Making the Case for TNR
DESCRIPTION: Register Now\n\nLed by the team at Neighborhood Cats, this workshop is designed for advocates facing resistance to Trap-Neuter-Return in their communities. When ordinances, policies, or decision-makers stand in the way of humane solutions, knowing how to make a clear, compelling case for TNR can be the difference between stalled efforts and meaningful progress.\nThis session equips participants with practical advocacy tools to communicate effectively with shelters, animal control, elected officials, and other stakeholders—helping you move conversations forward with confidence and credibility.\nWhat You’ll Learn\nMaking the Case for TNR\nLearn how to frame persuasive arguments for TNR, including how to present data, tell compelling stories, and align your messaging with community priorities. This section focuses on building credibility and avoiding common pitfalls that can undermine your case.\nResponding to Resistance & Common Objections\nExplore strategies for addressing frequently raised concerns, countering misinformation, and navigating challenging conversations with decision-makers. You’ll gain insight into how to adapt your approach depending on the audience while staying focused on humane, effective outcomes.\nValuable Resources & Certification\nTake advantage of the interactive format and live Q&A, extensive handouts, and real-life video footage from actual projects. Attendees will receive a digital certificate after passing a brief quiz and access to a dedicated Facebook group for ongoing networking with fellow TNR advocates. Plus the live course recording will be available for you to review for one year.\n\n\nWorkshop Sponsor\nWe are proud to receive support from the following sponsor for this workshop.\n\n.path{fill:none;stroke:#333;stroke-miterlimit:10;stroke-width:1.5px;}\n\n\n\nWe are currently accepting sponsorships for our 2026 educational season.
