    www.Nokillsolutions.org
    Nathan Winograd, one of the two key people responsible for making the San Francisco SPCA no kill (yes, it CAN happen if the shelter director is progressive and committed to it) and Tompkins County New York a no kill county, leads this organization. It is a great finger on the pulse of the no kill movement and full of fascinating information to help you battle the misconceptions (and flat out lies) tossed out there by people who do not want the system to change. We recommend his e-newsletter highly.
