Humane Action Pittsburgh (HAP) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization focused on solving the most pressing problems facing animals in Pittsburgh and Pennsylvania. In our 8 years of operation, we have passed 19 laws and ordinances in the state, including the first retail sales ban of mill-bred dogs, cats, and rabbits in Pennsylvania; and PA’s first laws to protect circus animals, including a ban on bullhooks and traveling exotic animal performances. We currently have over 20 active campaigns working for advanced protections ofallanimals, collaborating with local, state, and national partners such as legislators, corporations, community groups, universities, other nonprofits, and individuals. Additionally, we prioritize environmental conservation and community beautification, emphasizing the link between human, animal, and environmental well-being in all of our initiatives.
