Teaching Compassion for Animals

APNM is reaching out to New Mexico communities to enhance the human-animal bond and help improve safety with and compassion for animals. Long lasting systemic change will only come by transforming the way we think about, live with, care for, and protect the animals with whom we share our world. The well-established link between animal abuse and interpersonal violence is a key element to APNM’s approach to community outreach and training, but this link works both ways. There is a link between kindness to animals and creating nurturing relationships with others.

APNM offers unique, inspirational, and practical humane education program services for schools, community centers, correctional facilities, and neighborhood associations. Learn more about The Animal Connection, our school-based curriculum, and other community presentations.

The Animal Connection

APNM offers comprehensive humane education program services for all ages.

Special Community Presentations

All of the topics listed below are offered in The Animal Connection and the Animal Connection Jr. curricula, and are also available in the form of one-time presentations to your school, after school program, scout troop, community center, summer camp or other youth venue.

Dissection Choice

It’s the 21st Century and students should no longer have to make a choice between dissecting animal specimens or their academic careers.
