Watch our Executive Director Chris Green receive this year's American Bar Association’s Animal Law Committee’s Excellence in the Advancement of Animal Law Award.
Chris Green, Executive Director of the Brooks McCormick Jr. Animal Law & Policy Program at Harvard Law School, was awarded the American Bar Association’s Tort Trial and Insurance Practice Section (TIPS) Animal Law Committee’s Excellence in the Advancement of Animal Law Award today.
The award recognizes exceptional work by an Animal Law Committee member who, through commitment and leadership, has advanced the humane treatment of animals through the law.
Last year’s winner Daina Bray, who presented the award, described Chris as a lit doorway for anyone who wants to learn more and do more and to stop the great wrongs that we visit against animals.
She also quoted Professor Kristen Stilt, Faculty Director of the Animal Law & Policy Program who said: “It is no exaggeration to say that Chris has a significant hand, in fact the most significant hand of anyone I know, in shaping the field of animal law today through human talent.”
