Protect. Advocate. Legislate.

Since 1990, we have been the ONLY Missouri organization advocating for animal welfare at the State Capitol. We primarily focus on passing legislation to protect companion animals, farmed animals, and wildlife from abuse, neglect, and inhumane exploitation. We also assist with the enforcement of current animal laws.

The Alliance invites you to Humane Day 2026, a day dedicated to advocating for stronger protections for animals across Missouri. This event is an incredible opportunity to meet with lawmakers, share your support for animal welfare legislation, and connect with fellow advocates.
Who: Animal advocates from across Missouri
What: Legislative meetings, networking, and advocacy activities
When: Wednesday, April 15, 2026 | 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM
Where: 3rd Floor Rotunda, Missouri State Capitol, Jefferson City, MO
Why: To give a voice to the animals and influence legislation that impacts their welfare

Congratulations to Russell and his family!
Russell’s journey began at the APA Adoption Center in Brentwood. Russell is known for his boundless friendliness and big heart. He truly loves everyone he meets, so much so that it’s common for strangers in the community to greet him by name as they pass by.
We are proud to see Russell represent not only the Alliance, but also the countless rescue animals and dogs just like him and are still waiting for their chance. His story is a reminder of the life-changing impact of adoption and the incredible bonds that form when animals are given the love they deserve.
