Elementary age children will enjoy and benefit from our 26-minute educational video program used in classrooms and youth centers throughout Fort Wayne. It can be seen at home on two local cable channels: FWCS LTV-54 and City TV channel 58.
Its focus is on helping children develop a greater sense of responsibility and respect towards others by emphasizing the obligations and commitments associated with pet ownership and animal care.

Humane Education Advisory Council.

particular, the Council works in conjunction with the City of Fort Wayne Animal
Care & Control to create the cable cast video program known as KIND Club
Show.
The Humane Education Advisory Council

student members serving two years term. Members of HEAC may include teachers,
psychologists, case workers, counselors, advocates for youth development, animal
welfare professionals, veterinarians, and the City of Fort Wayne Humane
