Joanne Dittes Yepsen, the former mayor of Saratoga Springs, NY, and Diana Pikulski, former executive director of the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation and TDN contributor, have partnered to launch Yepsen & Pikulski, LLC, a new endeavor to advance complex policy issues and humane agendas on a federal, state and local level. The first two major issues on which the company will focus are implementation of the New York State Law requiring New York Public Schools to teach humane education as part of its regular curriculum and banning the slaughter of horses and transportation of horses for slaughter in the U.S. Other potential areas of focus for Yepsen & Pikulski will be support of people of diverse abilities in New York State, and advocating for national equal rights.
“With our combined experience and successes, there is no limit to the impact we can have,” said Pikulski. “I am looking forward to putting my experience towards changing our world for the better.”
“As a former mayor, I know that government is not the only entity to care about helping those in need–businesses and individuals care deeply about helping society and people in their communities and beyond,” said Yepsen. “Our campaigns will make this a win-win for constituents, corporate clients and government alike. We are excited to continue this strategic partnering on a wider scope to create significant change.”
