Humane Education
What is Humane Education?
Humane Education is learning to respect and care for animals in our homes, community, and environmental stewardship. It teaches kindness, respect, and empathy for both human and nonhuman animals and respecting the environment that we all share. Humane Education strives to establish a sense of responsibility and make the world a better, more humane place.
