Join us for an interesting lecture by Lisa LaFontaine, CEO of the Humane Rescue Alliance as she discusses how to keep animals out of shelters and the changing nature of animal welfare work at the community level.
The Humane Rescue Alliance is this area’s premier animal welfare organization and was created when two iconic predecessors—the Washington Humane Society (WHS) and the Washington Animal Rescue League (WARL)—came together to form a single more powerful voice for animals. With this historic union, Washington, DC, becomes the only major urban area in the country that has all of its animal protection programs and services—from medical services and adoptions to animal control and humane law enforcement—unified in one organization. Lisa has been leading this organization for almost ten years.
A delicious, organic GreenFare salad, organic Creamy Kale and Potato Casserole, and a special organic dessert will be served during this compelling talk.
A $10 donation to the Humane Rescue Alliance is suggested.
