"Children trained to extend justice, kindness and mercy to animals become more just and considerate in their relation with each other. Character training along these lines in youth will result in men and women of broader sympathies, more humane, more law-abiding-in every respect more valuable citizens"  From the 1993 National P.T.A. Congress

The Humane Education Program for schools consists of presentation to individual classes on a variety of relevant topics. Presentations to classes are conducted on request from the teacher or school. We also meet with classes, Girl Scout Troops and Boy Scout Troops at the shelter for tours.

The New Rochelle Humane Society has been offering this program for over 10 years. If you are interested in this program please contact the shelter at 914-632-2925.
