Our mission is to encourage people to embrace their empathy for farmed animals and move toward a plant-based / vegan / vegetarian lifestyle. We do this through increasing awareness of farmed animal suffering with campus outreach, building community with plant-based eating, and nurturing animal rights advocates on campus.
We raise student awareness to the plight of farmed animals by conducting weekly outreach, hanging posters, and chalking on campus. We believe that connecting people through empathetic conversations is the key to making a more compassionate world. We encourage you to visit us at our outreach events or even become a volunteer!
We build community by hosting weekly dine-outs and cookouts. This year we will also be hosting VegWeek, a weeklong event with movies, games, art, and more so you can connect with our members. You can also check out our Discord to chat and see what our community is up to!
We want to see you grow with us! We do outreach training to further your advocacy and communication skills. We also offer leadership opportunities in our student group to further your advocacy, develop leadership skills, and develop your resume. Finally, we maintain a page for student opportunities in animal advocacy including internships and research.
Farmed animals are mutilated and killed. By choosing plant-based, you no longer contribute to this violence.
Animal agriculture pollutes our air with greenhouse gases. It pollutes our streams, rivers, lakes, and oceans with chemicals and animal waste. Animal Agriculture is the leading cause of deforestation.
Eating animal products is a significant contributor to the most common diseases among people like heart disease and cancer.
Our members will receive the following benefits: Free Food: free mouth-watering vegan food will be provided at most outreach, meetings, and events. Community: CAA fosters a community for vegan / vegetarian / veg-curious students to network and form long lasting friendships. We accomplish this goal through events and online social platforms. Events include game nights, movie nights, cookouts, and our annual Vegan Chili Cook-Off. Student Empowerment: CAA empowers students to make a difference in the world with many campus outreach opportunities throughout the year, and resources to discover careers in vegan advocacy and plant-based foods.
