Speak up for animals in your state! Your voice matters and your legislators need to hear from you. If you care about animals, then join us for a Humane Lobby Day near you. You’ll meet with your district's senators and representatives for support of animal rights and animal welfare legislation. You’ll also connect with other people from so many walks of life—all with the same goal of saving animals.
Our next Lobby Day, available to all Taking Action for Animals 2024 participants, will be July 22, 2024, in Washington, D.C.
Humane Journeys trips offer authentic mission-based travel opportunities to unique destinations throughout the world while witnessing firsthand the meaningful work of the Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society International.
From spectacular galas to inspiring conferences, the Humane Society of the United States hosts numerous events year-round across the country where you’ll have the opportunity to meet fellow animal advocates, learn about important animal welfare issues and discover ways to make a difference for animals in your community and around the world.
