Taking Action for Animals

Join us in New Orleans from August 1-3, 2025 for the leading U.S. conference in animal advocacy. Taking Action for Animals (TAFA) brings together volunteers, advocates and animal welfare organizations from across the U.S. for one shared goal: to better the lives of animals and people alike. TAFA will take place in New Orleans from August 1-3, 2025. Are you ready to make a real difference for animals in your community? At TAFA, you can gain a better understanding of the many issues animals face in our society and learn how to take action in your community through lobbying, education and other citizen advocacy. Learn how to enact policies and support legislation to protect animals on the local, state and federal level, plus how to work with community members to further the animal welfare movement.
