Latinos for Animal Protection

Mission

Latinos for Animal Protection provides humane education and outreach to the vast Latino population within the United States, and supports animal protection organizations in Latin America working on projects that improve the lives of animals, to foster a changing and positive attitude towards animals within the Latino community.

Vision

Ideally, Latinos for Animal Protection believes that an end to animal exploitation, cruelty, and suffering is possible, and that the Latino community is crucial in this change. We hope to become an integral part of the community, in the United States and abroad.

History

Latinos for Animal Protection, (LAP) was founded in February 2008, by Michelle Carrera-Hutchins, as a need for an organization that provides support to Latino animal protection advocates became apparent. Still in its formative stage, LAP will seek non-profit status in the near future. If you share our vision, and would like to join us, please contact us at info@latanipro.org
