Bucks County Community College invites the public to the annual Compassion for Animals and Environment (CAE) conference from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, September 27, at the Newtown Campus.
Sponsored by the College’s School of Business, Innovation, and Legal Studies, the
CAE is the only conference whose goals are to respect animals' emotions and
intelligence; increase reliance on plant-based foods; be kind to Earth, its inhabitants,
and ourselves; and strengthen the human-animal bond.
The conference features speakers who are prominent leaders in animal welfare, rescue,
science, law, and social justice. The program includes:
Attendees can also learn from a myriad of exhibitors who share the conference goals, such as the Southeastern Pennsylvania-Delaware House Rabbit Society, the Bucks County SPCA, the American Anti-Vivisection Society, Tabby’s Place, Indraloka Animal Sanctuary, Rowdy Girl Sanctuary, Lancaster Farm Sanctuary, Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, and more.
The $30 registration fee includes a vegan boxed lunch by V-Spot Restaurant, cookies from Fat Badger Bakery, and a donation to an animal rescue organization. The student registration fee is $18 and there are scholarships available. Register online at https://bit.ly/CAEatBCCC by September 20.
