Humane Education Program

Humane Education

Salt Lake County Animal Services' innovative programs incorporate varied materials, games and activities to stimulate learning and engage all learning styles.  Our age-appropriate presentations demonstrate basic animal care, humane treatment of animals, and important animal safety information.

• Teaches young people to treat animals with respect and compassion
• Reduces the number of homeless pets in our community
• Increases the number of licensed and microchipped pets so more go back home
• Keeps everyone safer from animal bites
• Breaks the links of animal cruelty, domestic violence and criminal behavior
• Teaches the community to be responsible pet owners
• Instills the long-term values of compassion, empathy, and responsibility

Responsibility + compassion + safety + pets
= Humane Education
