Young people have a natural affinity for animals. Our various resources for parents and educators help nurture that bond by instilling empathy and a humane ethic in children at every stage in their development. We offer humane-themed lesson plans and worksheets, opportunities for training and professional development for teachers and humane educators, an award-winning service-learning program, a classroom magazine for K-6 students, and more.
