A couple of years ago Ken Shapiro<\/a> (Psychologists for the Ethical Treatment of Animals; aka Society and Animals Forum) and myself (The Animals’ Agenda<\/em> which became the Institute for Animals and Society) decided to merge our organizations to form the Animals and Society Institute (ASI). <\/p>\n

The merger went smoothly but launching a new Web site was a challenge. This is because we had two previously-existing Web sites (www.psyeta.org and www.animalsandsociety.org) to merge into one. Each organization\/site had its own history and programs. The organizational merger went smoothly because we developed and implemented a plan, which included a programmatic outline, but the Web site merger had to be completed on a next-to-nothing budget. <\/p>\n

Enter: Antharia<\/a>, who took ASI up as a cause in their “No non-profit left behind on the Internet” program. And, so, after what is more than a year of activity — and many, Many, MANY thanks to Antharia — we launched the new ASI Web site last week. If you haven’t already done so, please take a moment to have a look<\/a>. It’s already full of a lot of unique information and resources that you just won’t find anywhere else. ASI’s programs — and, consequently, the Web site — are broken down into three primary areas<\/p>\n

AniCare–to stop the cycle of violence between animal cruelty and human abuse <\/p>\n

Human-Animal Studies–to learn more about our complex relationship with animals <\/p>\n

Animals’ Platform–to promote new and stricter animal protection laws<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There’s still a lot to do with the new ASI Web site but please do take a moment to check it out. One of the features I’m most excited about is the ASI Diary, which is our very own blog!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
