What we aim to solve
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
AAVS Programs
AAVS' Outreach division educates the public about animal issues through our award winning quarterly publication AV Magazine and bimonthly newsletter Activate For Animals, both of which are sent to all members and provide comprehensive, up-to-date information on animal experiments and alternatives. Outreach staff also speak at conferences and place advertisements to reach a large audience, exposing what occurs behind laboratory doors. AAVS also provides grant support to sanctuaries that care for animals formerly used in laboratory research.
Humane Science Education
Animalearn is AAVS' education division and focuses on ending vivisection and dissection in the classroom from elementary through college levels. Animalearn operates The Science Bank, a dissection alternatives lending library, which provides alternatives to using animals, from basic dissection to psychology experiments. By participating in national teacher conferences, hosting workshops and in-service days and providing information to individuals who request assistance, Animalearn helps countless students, teachers, parents and other community members make their classrooms more humane.
Leaping Bunny Program
AAVS is the chair of the Coalition for Consumer Information on Cosmetics (CCIC) and consequently manages the CCIC's Leaping Bunny Program, which promotes the purchase and use of products not tested on animals.
