Leading ARC's Work for Animals into the Future
After seven years of working and growing together through the Animal Rights Coalition, Executive Director Dallas Rising has decided it's time to move on to her next great adventure! Dallas has been a big part of bringing ARC to where it is today with her creativity and commitment to fighting all forms of oppression, and we thank her for her work.


ARC is pleased to announce that Chelsea Hassler has been promoted to ARC Program Director and that Greg Kiefer has joined us as our new Volunteer and Outreach Coordinator. In the year Chelsea has been with ARC she has proven herself a dedicated, reliable, and passionate leader, and has grown our outreach efforts significantly. Greg has been an effective, capable, and well-liked volunteer at ARC and brings many skills that will help expand our activism and outreach for animals.

ARC's unique and innovative education and outreach programs reach thousands of people every year, and we're confident that Chelsea and Greg will do a great job of leading our work to end the suffering, abuse, and exploitation of animals.
