Mission: The HSUS seeks a humane and sustainable world for all animals?a world that will also benefit people. We are America?s mainstream force against cruelty, exploitation, and neglect, and also the nation?s most trusted voice extolling the human-animal bond.
Our mission statement: Celebrating Animals, Confronting Cruelty.
Programs: The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) has worked since 1954 to promote the protection of all animals. We are the largest and most powerful animal protection organization with nearly 10 million members and constituents.
We celebrate the human-animal bond, and we fight animal cruelty and abuse in all of its forms.
We work to reduce suffering and to create meaningful social change for animals by advocating for public policies to protect animals, investigating cruelty and working to enforce existing laws, educating the public about the issues, and assisting animals when disasters strike.
Our major campaigns target four primary issues:
1) factory farming
2) animal fighting and other forms of animal cruelty
3) the fur trade
4) inhumane sport hunting practices
Our other campaigns take on:
1) puppy mills
2) the private ownership of exotic animals as pets
3) greyhound racing
4) unacceptable animal research and testing practices
Our two signature programs?Pets for Life and Wild Neighbors?celebrate the benefits of the bond between people and animals who live with us or in our communities, and teach people how to solve human/animal conflicts humanely.
And finally, we provide direct care for thousands of animals at our sanctuaries, wildlife rehabilitation centers, and mobile veterinary clinics.
