Classroom Presentations
Noell Matilda classroom 608_thumb.jpg
Presentations are available free of charge to classrooms in Contra Costa County.

Each presentation lasts approximately one hour and includes supplemental handouts for the students. Follow-up materials will also be given to the teacher.

Through our programs in the schools and materials available for use, we would like to help teachers fulfill Section 44806 of the California Education Code which includes the teaching of kindness toward domestic pets and the humane treatment of living creatures.

Teacher In-Service
We are available to come to your school during your faculty meetings or at other times convenient for you. We will bring you up-to-date on humane education materials that can be integrated into your daily curriculum.

Many materials are available that can make teaching humane education easy and fun!

Call Humane Education at (925) 335-8340 to schedule an appointment.
