Educational Outreach
In addition to our programs at San Diego Humane Society, we can bring our humane and character education lessons to your educational setting. We can tailor programs for all age groups and offer lessons on dog bite prevention, responsible pet care, careers with animals and more.
These programs are free of charge, however, donations are greatly appreciated and help with the costs of providing these valuable learning opportunities.
