Tool Kit
We know you have your hands full and it’s our goal to make it easy for your organization to be involved. If you have suggestions for other ways we can support your involvement, please email us.
Below we've provided descriptions of several ways you can help and resources to help you proceed. Don't worry: We don't expect you to jump in and do them all! Consider what will work for your organization and start there.
Write a Letter of Support
Your letter tells others that you believe in new tools to control pet populations and that you support ACC&D’s work in this area. We have templates available that can be easily personalized by your organization, or you are welcome to write your own.
Your letter should be printed on your letterhead and signed by someone authorized to speak on behalf of your organization (generally an executive director).
Please scan and email a signed pdf version of your letter to us at karen@acc-d.org or mail a hard copy of your letter to:
ACC&D
14245 NW Belle Court
Portland, OR 97229

Spread the Word

Resources for Spreading the Word
• Copy and paste from this library of articles/descriptions and blurbs.
• Writing an original article? Contact ACC&D for more information and/or to set up an interview.
• Order brochures to share at your facility or special events. (See a preview the general brochure and OPP brochure.)
• Visit our image library to download the ACC&D logo to include with your article or posting.
Place a Banner or Button
Including one of our web banners on your web site, or in your enewsletter or blog, is a fun way to show your support and provide an easy way for others to find out more about non-surgical sterilization.
