New England Federation of Humane Societies
The New England Federation of Humane Societies (NEFHS) is a dynamic and active organization that provides information and education to animal welfare workers in our region and beyond. Our Board of Directors and Advisory Council members represent a wide variety of animal welfare organizations across New England, from large shelters to small rescues, and everything in between.
Each year in April, the NEFHS holds the largest animal welfare conference in New England. This event regularly attracts attendees from within and outside of the region, as well as nationally known speakers. Throughout the year, we also host outreach events on a variety of topics across New England. With simple respect for our animal friends and the field of animal welfare, only vegetarian and vegan food are provided at all NEFHS events.
