That's so great! I live in Chelsea - we are with the Humane Society of Huron Valley. :) I'm so glad you are attending! Perhaps we can get together at some point for lunch or coffee! Feel free to email me at karenp@hshv.org.

So looking forward to this! It makes it so convenient when these events are available remotely and I am very appreciative of the opportunity to hear all of these wonderful speakers. I am located in Chelsea, Michigan with Barn Sanctuary, a farmed animal sanctuary. I am working to develop our educational programs and know this summit will provide a lot of wonderful information.

Hello from Western Wisconsin! This is such a great opportunity! I coordinate the Humane Education Department at the Coulee Region Humane Society and am excited to learn more about how we can expand our program and bring in new innovative ideas!

Hi everyone! I'll be tag-teaming a Humane Summit presentation on humane science education. I'm looking forward to sharing some of the work I do with my charity (same goes for my co-presenter). Our presentation will explore how science teachers can avoid using real animals for dissection in life science class, and the value that non-animal teaching methods bring to the humane education movement. I hope you can tune in!
