Make a Donation: Every little bit helps in the efforts to prevent animal cruelty and human violence.

Set an Example/Become a Link Trainer: We urge parents and teachers to teach, model and encourage kids to show kindness and compassion towards other people and animals and to develop and deliver curricula that build empathy.

Encourage Your Agency to Request a Training: Service providers are encouraged to collaborate with agencies in other disciplines to recognize, report, treat and prevent all forms of cruelty. Service providers are also encouraged to request a training or workshop on The Link.
