What We Do

Humane Education

Change an Animal's Life

As part of the continual efforts of Portage APL to reach out to our communities, we offer vocational speakers for classroom lessons as well as Portage APL.

Schedule A Speaker for Your School

Our Humane Agent and Executive Director visit local schools to help educate students of all ages on topics such as, proper animal care, dog bite prevention, pet safety, pet identification and many other animal related topics.

We feel that educating the youth in our community is a step in the right direction to help prevent animal cruelty as well as domestic violence. Unfortunately animal cruelty and domestic violence tend to go hand in hand and we need to teach compassion and understanding to our children.

It is a wonderful experience to visit local schools and know that you made a difference in a young person’s life or that you have taught them something they will hopefully carry with them throughout their lives. We love the opportunity to talk about the APL and the great work we do for people and animals in the community.
