UAN's volunteer-driven Emergency Animal Rescue Service (EARS) shelters and cares for animals displaced by natural disasters and other crises, such as criminal seizures and hoarding cases, in the United States and Canada.
The LifeLine Grant Program provides funding to Good Samaritans, animal rescuers, non-profit organizations and pet owners to help them care for animals in life-threatening situations.
Through the Premarin Awareness Campaign , UAN educates women about hormone drugs made from pregnant mares’ urine (PMU) and helps people adopt the mares and foals cast off from this industry who might otherwise be at risk for slaughter.
UAN's Humane Education programs foster compassion and empathy for animals and empower people to make choices that improve animal lives. Volunteers with the Humane Education Ambassador Reader (HEAR) program bring stories and discussion about animals to children in schools, camps, daycare centers and after-school programs.
