The UCLA Animal Welfare Association was started in 1990 by a group of faculty, staff, and students interested in working towards humane solutions to the problems of animals living or abandoned at UCLA. AWA developed formal and informal affiliations with campus departments involved in these issues: the Department of Environment, Health and Safety, the Police Department, and Facilities Management. AWA has been recognized by all three departments for its assistance in the reduction of animal-related problems at UCLA. The UCLA Animal Welfare Association works closely with a veterinarian who provides advice on dealing with wild and domestic animals on campus. Through this relationship it has developed guidelines for dealing with animals in various contexts on campus. AWA also works closely with a nonprofit adoption service for the placement of abandoned or unclaimed cats and dogs found at UCLA. This side of their work involves a great deal of hands-on experience with animals. By working with the UCLA Animal Welfare Association, you will be able to document your commitment and your experience in working with animals while taking preparatory classes at UCLA. The problems of animals living in urban settings are widespread and affect small animal veterinary practices everywhere. For more information, please call the AWA faculty sponsor, Professor Taimie Bryant at UCLA Law School.
