AWSโ Youth Programs, led by state-certified educator, Brie Roche, provide interactive and creative learning opportunities for children of all ages. Our unique and engaging approach targets three important educational components: literacy, social-emotional learning and animal advocacy. Our fun programs incorporate the animals in our care to help children grow emotionally, socially, culturally and a
cademically. Creative lessons benefit animals and students, inside and outside the classroom. Whether weโre working together to improve literacy skills by reading aloud to a resident pet or learning about animal body language and how it can mirror our own feelings, students participating in AWSโ Youth Programs are more engaged, more compassionate, and more knowledgeable about animals and the world we share.
