We had a panel discussion recently about a wonderful new organization called CARE which stands for Companions and Animals for Reform and Equity. The website for CARE states:
"We believe in the inherent goodness and dignity of all people. Ex-offenders, People without Homes, Seniors, Renters, Families with Small Children, and Yes, People of Color. To that end, CARE’s mission is to bring diverse voices to the Animal Welfare industry while also advocating for a more inclusive path to pet adoption. CARE is using evidence-based tools and narratives to inspire organizations to be more inclusive and less biased. All in an effort to save more companion animal lives and elevate the value of all human life."
We're really excited about the work of the organization and look forward to learning more! We hope to schedule a future panel discussion which includes the CARE President, James Evans
