Program areas at The National Humane Education Society

The Briggs Animal Adoption Center (BAAC) is NHES' flagship animal care facilityone of the finest in the countrylocated on the NHES campus, 64 miles west of Washington, D.C. In FY 2022, we served animal welfare by (1) Welcoming thousands of visitors and striving to educate each of them about kindliness to animals; (2) Caring for a daily average population of nearly 205 animals; (3) Rehabilitating hundreds of neglected and abused animals and placing them in loving, adoptive homes; (4) Distributing emergency cat and dog food to individuals and animal rescue groups, and (5) Working collaboratively with animal shelters and rescue groups to save animal lives.
Spay Today also located on the NHES campus, provides reduced-cost spay/neuter services for people who understand the need to spay/neuter one's animal(s) but cannot afford the normative fees for these procedures. In FY 2022, working together with participating veterinarians, Spay Today served animal welfare by: (1) Spaying/Neutering 3,111 animals; (2) Working collaboratively with myriad humane organizations and rescue groups to spay/neuter animals; and (3) providing spay/neuter information and referral services for people across the country.NHES Alliance Partnership Program involves NHES working with, and providing funding to, other reputable humane organizations whose missions and charitable works embody one or more of NHES' 12 guiding principles; thereby helping to create a more humane world for animals. In FY 2022, NHES partnered with and provided funding to (1) The Network for Endangered Sea Turtles of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, to help them protect and conserve sea turtles and other marine wildlife on the outer banks of North Carolina; (2) Operation Catnip of Gainesville, Florida, in conjunction with the University of Florida, College of Veterinary Medicine, to help them humanely reduce the number of community cats by utilizing veterinary students, monitored by veterinarians, to spay/neuter community cats; and (3) Friends of Felines of Cape Hatteras Island, to help them monitor and humanely manage the free-roaming community cats on this barrier island.
During fiscal year 2022, despite some school district's continuing restrictions related to COVID-19, we were able to resume humane education presentations to children in a select number of schools and also continue our efforts to reach children virtually; thereby reaching thousands across the country. Beyond this, we continued creating and distributing humane education materials and calls for action nationwide through direct mail and NHES websites, social networking sites and email newsletters. We also continued our advocacy for animals by encouraging private companies, law enforcement, regulatory agencies, lawmakers, and others to adopt policies and practices that support the humane treatment of animals.
