YOUTH PROGRAMS:
- FREE HUMANE EDUCATION LESSONS for school classrooms in the Houston area. We can schedule class visits to your school and present lessons to students from 2nd to 12th grade. These lessons address the TEA-recommended character education values, and many are aligned to state standards. Click here to learn about our education program.
