i~ <br />HSUS Professional Animal Services Consultation Program Proposal <br />The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) is the <br />nation's largest animal-protection organization, with more <br />than seven million constituents. The HSUS was founded in <br />1954 to promote the humane treatment of animals and to foster <br />respect, understanding, and compassion for all creatures. <br />Today our message of care and protection embraces not only <br />the animal kingdom but also the Earth and its environment. To <br />achieve our goals, The HSUS works through legal, <br />educational, legislative, and investigative means. The HSUS's <br />'efforts in the United States are facilitated by our regional <br />offices; we are not, however, affiliated with any local animal <br />shelters or humane organizations. Our programs include those <br />in humane education, wildlife and habitat protection, farm <br />animals and bioethics, companion animals, and animal <br />research issues. The HSUS's worldwide outreach is supported <br />by our global family of affiliated organizations. <br />Page 1~ <br />Revised 11/02 <br />
