Make AVMA Podcasts Part of Your Outreach

Did you know that AVMA has two different podcasts series: Animal Tracks, which features pet health and safety tips, and Chew on This, which covers food safety and advocacy? Both podcast series are available on iTunes, www.AVMAMedia.org and at the links above. More importantly, both podcast series are excellent advocacy tools for you to use when working with your member of Congress.

AVMA podcasts are a great way to explain an issue to a member of Congress. They're quick and easy to understand, and they feature some of the brightest minds in veterinary medicine.

Is E. coli in the news? Forward your legislative contacts a link to our podcast on the topic. Let them learn about it from the experts. Or maybe you found out that your lawmaker's dog has arthritis. Send them a link to that podcast!

When communicating and maintaining relationships with your members of Congress, make sure your outreach includes useful educational information. AVMA podcasts are an excellent way to guarantee that happens.
