In Advocates for Animals Girshick focuses on the volunteers and organizations that fill the gap in what laws, policies, practices, and services do not address for animal rights and protection. 204 personal reflections teach about their paths to involvement, what they do and hope to achieve, and how this has impacted their lives.
