Right to Rescue Summit
April 15 @ 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Join us at the in person event in Buffalo, NY… to find your role in the open rescue movement!
Hosted by renowned animal activist and attorney Wayne Hsiung, this half-day summit will begin at noon with a panel discussing the Right to Rescue. The panel will feature Tracy Murphy, owner of Asha’s Farm Sanctuary, and Jenny McQueen, a Toronto-based open rescue leader and defendant in the #Porgreg12 case.
Following the panel, Wayne Hsiung will facilitate a hands-on workshop simulating a real open rescue — all the way from researching facilities, planning the field investigation, and winning your open rescue case at trial.
Whether you want to plan your own high-impact open rescue or be a movement supporter, this workshop will give you a deeper understanding of open rescue that inspires and empowers you to transform the world for animals.
