Expo, a world-class educational conference and full-scale international trade show, is designed for anyone who works or volunteers at the local level with dogs, cats, or other animals. The goal of this annual event is to help people working in the fields of animal sheltering, care, control, rescue, and disaster planning and response do the best and most efficient jobs possible.

The 2013 Animal Care Expo was held in Tennesse in early May and touched on some timely issues.

The Humane Society of the United States’ Genesis Awards Benefit Gala - inspiring change for animals!  Supporting the life-saving work of The HSUS, the event honors and celebrates those in the media and beyond whose efforts are building a more humane world for animals. Through our annual Genesis Awards, we recognize the influential role the media plays in increasing public consciousness of the many critical issues affecting the welfare of animals worldwide. Showcasing major programs of The HSUS, the event is also a celebration of exceptional individuals from the corporate world and public life whose inspiring advocacy is making a lasting difference in the lives of animals.

The star-studded 2013 event was held on March 23 at the Beverly Hills Hilton in California. See a recap here. Email us at hollywood@humanesociety.org.
