Education Programs

Since our early years as this community’s safe haven for stray and unwanted animals, PHS/SPCA has emphasized education. In fact, we were among the first humane societies, nationwide, to establish a humane education program and hire staff specifically for this vital work.  While our Humane Education Department directs and delivers a range of programs, we consider employees from all departments - adoption counselors, officers, behaviorists and veterinarians - to be educators.
