Most people think animal advocacy begins and ends with awareness. But according to Amit Dhuleshia, lasting change for animals requires something much bigger: political action, grassroots organizing, and long-term strategy.
In this episode of Better Life for Animals, Cheryl Moss sits down with Amit Dhuleshia, co-founder of Strategic Action for Animals and creator of the Action for Animals app, to discuss how advocates can move beyond reacting to crises and begin building systems that create lasting protections for animals.
Amit shares his journey from the software industry into animal advocacy and explains why he believes local political engagement may be one of the most overlooked tools in the movement today. Together, Cheryl and Amit discuss the importance of influencing legislation, organizing communities, building relationships with elected officials, and empowering people to take meaningful action for animals.
The conversation also explores current issues impacting animal welfare, including opposition to the EATS Act, protecting Proposition 12, local ballot initiatives, and creating scalable grassroots models that communities across the country can replicate.
Amit also discusses the Action for Animals app, a platform designed to make advocacy simple and accessible by helping users quickly contact elected officials and stay informed on important animal protection issues.
This episode is both inspiring and practical for anyone who wants to create real change for animals through organized, strategic action.
