Justify: Supporting Current and Former Lab Workers
Event Date: August 16, 2023
The Beagle Alliance had a very open discussion on what it looks like to support former lab workers. The past, the present and the future. The trauma, healing and moving forward.
If we do not come together without judgment, no change will ever be made.

We are not here to justify animal experimentation. JUSTIFY is a community that supports current and former lab workers and advocates for a world where science exists without causing harm to animals or humans.
