ANIMAL WELFARE APPROVED

Improving the housing and handling of animals in research, and encouraging the development and implementation of alternatives to experimentation on live animals... Abolishing factory farms, supporting high-welfare family farms, and eliminating inhumane methods used to slaughter animals raised for food... Since 1951, the Animal Welfare Institute has been alleviating suffering inflicted on animals by humans. In the early years, AWI founder Christine Stevens sought to end the cruel treatment of animals in experimental laboratories. Inevitably, her work expanded to take on other animal welfare causes.
