Use, adapt, and verify these educational starting points before sharing them locally. They are measure-neutral and do not tell anyone how to vote.
Fact Sheet
What makes sanctuary care different
- True sanctuary work centers lifetime care, not breeding, buying, selling, or public-contact encounters.
- Accreditation, facility policies, species focus, and last-verified profile facts matter before support decisions.
- Volunteer and internship opportunities should come from published facility records, not assumptions.
Talking Points
Calm framing for one conversation
- Lead with lifetime care and welfare standards.
- Explain why public contact, breeding, sales, or vague accreditation claims deserve scrutiny.
- Use directory profiles and official rosters before naming a facility as a fit.
- Keep policy context separate from facility claims unless both are sourced.
