Bringing the science of human-animal interactions to our community.
The Human-Animal Wellness Collaboratory is a non-profit research organization within the Department of Psychology at Monmouth University. We conduct both in-house research evaluating training, enrichment, and the humane use of animals in teaching as well as with off-site at collaborating animal shelters and zoological facilities. We are also involved in community outreach initiatives that aim to improve the well-being of both animals and the people that care for them.
