We were fortunate to have as a speaker at our May 2018 pot luck gathering one of our own - Kimberly Hosler - who is active in the ever-growing groups in and around the Capitol Region/ Hudson Valley that fight for animal advocacy and animal rights issues. A number of folks asked for information as to how they can get involved. Here are the links that Kimberly was kind enough to forward: You can also find Kimberly as part of the Albany Vegan Network, where she is active and on the board. Check out the Albany Vegan Network Website as well, and their Meetup.
