Humane
Education
The
Humane Society of St. Lucie County offers schools and other
groups presenations on responsible
pet ownership, dog-bite prevention,
pet safety/CPR, shelter
tours and much more! We frequently bring an adoptable,
temperament-tested animal from the shelter for the presentation
or a registered therapy
dog.
What
is the typical profile of a humane education volunteer?
Humane
education volunteers have diverse backgrounds. We have had
students, retirees, homemakers, former and aspiring teachers,
and individuals who enjoy working with kids, adults and
animals.
Volunteers
at the shelter must be 15 years of age or older. Volunteers
at PETCO must be 18 years of age or older. We are a drug-free
workplace.
