Detailed Information:

NEAVS works to change laws and practices that affect animals in laboratories, promote non-animal research and teaching methods, and support rescue efforts and permanent sanctuaries for those few animals who make it out of research alive.
The organization was founded in 1895 by a small group of prominent Boston citizens including physicians and lawyers in response to the growing threat of vivisection, including the opening of one of the nation’s first laboratories for animal experimentation at Harvard University.
NEAVS’ corporate headquarters are located in Boston, Massachusetts – long a hot-bed of animal experimentation. NEAVS’ Boston-based education affiliate is the Ethical Science and Education Coalition (ESEC).
