The Association of Prosecuting Attorneys, in partnership with the Animal Legal Defense Fund, will host the 13th National Animal Cruelty Prosecution Conference in Richmond, Virginia on November 13-15, 2024.

The goal of this training is to provide prosecutors, law enforcement, and allied professionals with the requisite skills to strengthen links between the criminal justice system and the community by protecting our most vulnerable victims and to enhance prosecutors' ability to successfully identify and prosecute animal cruelty and animal fighting cases.

This conference is intended for prosecutors, law enforcement and animal control officers, veterinarians and related disciplines involved in the prosecution of animal cruelty crimes. Due to space restrictions, those not meeting this criteria will be contacted by APA and a full refund will be issued.
