Humane Education

At its most basic level, humane education is about learning to care for the animals in our homes and communities. It is about fostering kindness, respect and empathy for both human and nonhuman animals... humane education has a philosophical component that strives to establish a sense of responsibility and make the world a better, more humane place.

The Humane Society of Yuma offers a presentations on animal cruelty and bite prevention that can be tailored to any audience or grade level. For more information, contact our Outreach Manager Tami Quinlan.
