Our MissionTo be a voice for animal welfare by bringing together veterinarians, animal scientists, and other stakeholders to improve animal wellbeing of all species.
The goals are these:
- To provide a neutral platform for all animal welfare issues to be identified, discussed, and science-based solutions to be explored.
- To positively impact animal health and welfare, and serve as a catalyst to expand educational opportunities in the areas of research, training, emergency preparedness and community outreach and volunteerism.
- To encourage faculty to engage in animal welfare research and outreach activities
- A major focus will be to develop curriculum and trainings to educate students, veterinarians, first responders, government agency representatives, and community members in emergency and disaster prevention and response methods for animals.
