FORM 990, PAGE 1, PART I, LINE 6
VOLUNTEERS DISTRIBUTE MATERIALS TO GROCERS REQUESTING THEY SELL PRODUCTS THAT ARE CERTIFIED HUMANE THEY ALSO DO DESIGN WORK, CLERICAL WORK AND WHATEVER THEIR TALENTS AND THEIR TIME MAY ALLOW.
FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A
THERE ARE NOW 111 COMPANIES, REPRESENTING 4,900 FARMS THAT ARE CERTIFIED HUMANE. THESE FARMS AND RANCHES ARE LOCATED IN 45 STATES IN THE US AND 4 CANADIAN PROVINCES AS WELL AS IN BRAZIL AND PERU. 17 NEW COMPANIES WERE CERTIFIED HUMANE IN 2013. CERTIFIED HUMANE PRODUCTS CAN BE FOUND IN OVER 13,394 SUPERMARKETS IN 49 STATES AND ACROSS CANADA, AS WELL AS IN PERU AND IN BRAZIL. THAT IS 6,394 MORE STORES THIS YEAR THAN LAST YEAR CONSUMERS CONTINUE TO LOCATE PRODUCTS USING THE MOBILE APP THAT HFAC LAUNCHED IN 2012. THE APP IS FREE TO DOWNLOAD AND IS SUPPORTED ON IPHONES AND ANDROID DEVICES. ADDITIONALLY, HFAC'S "WHERE TO BUY" PAGE IS MOBILE ACCESSIBLE AND AVAILABLE ONLINE. THERE ARE 12,000 NEW CONSUMERS MONTHLY SEEKING TO FIND CERTIFIED HUMANE PRODUCTS. CONSUMERS ARE ALSO TAKING ACTION FOR CHANGE. ON OUR "TAKE ACTION" PAGE, HTTP://CERTIFIEDHUMANE.ORG/TAKE-ACTION-FOR-FARM-ANIMALS/PRODUCT AND DOWNLOAD PRODUCT REQUEST AND COMMENT CARDS, AND THEY HAVE SUCCESSFULLY TAKEN THEM TO THEIR SUPERMARKETS REQUESTING THEIR SUPERMARKETS SELL PRODUCTS THAT ARE CERTIFIED HUMANE. THERE ARE SOME THAT HAVE CIRCULATED PETITIONS TO THEIR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS TO BRING TO THEIR LOCAL SUPERMARKET REQUESTING THE SUPERMARKET CARRY CERTIFIED HUMANE PRODUCTS. WE CAN ALL BE ADVOCATES FOR FARM ANIMALS BY PURCHASING CERTIFIED HUMANE PRODUCTS AND BY UTILIZING THE TOOLS PROVIDED ON OUR WEBSITE AND THROUGH OUR NEW APP. WE HAVE OVER 500 VOLUNTEERS DISTRIBUTING INFORMATION AND REQUESTING PRODUCT AT THEIR SUPERMARKETS. IN ORDER TO BECOME CERTIFIED BY HFAC, FARMERS MUST MEET HFAC ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS AND PASS ANNUAL INSPECTIONS. HFAC'S ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS WERE DEVELOPED AND SUBJECT TO REGULAR REVIEW BY A VERITABLE "WHO'S WHO" OF NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL ANIMAL SCIENTISTS AND FARM-ANIMAL WELFARE EXPERTS. OUR VOLUNTARY SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE CONSISTS OF, MICHAEL APPLEBY, PHD, WORLD SOCIETY FOR THE PROTECTION OF ANIMALS, BRITTANY BOCK, PHD, FORT HAYS STATE UNIVERSITY, BRENDA COE, PHD, PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY, ANNE FANATICO, PHD, APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY, DR ALAN GOLDBERG, JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY, TEMPLE GRANDIN, PHD, COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY, PATRICIA HESTER, PHD, PURDUE UNIVERSITY, THOMAS G. HARTSOCK, UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND, PAM HULLINGER, DVM, MPVM, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, LAWRENCE LIVERMORE NATIONAL LABORATORY, JOY MENCH, PHD, PROFESSOR, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, DAVIS, SUZANNE MILLMAN, PHD, IOWA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF VETERINARY MEDICINE, RUTH NEWBERRY PHD, WASHINGTON STATE UNIVERSITY, ED PAJOR, PHD, UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY, JOSE PERALTA, PHD, DVM,COLLEGE OF VETERINARY MEDICINE, WESTERN UNIVERSITY OF HEALTH SCIENCES, ROSANGELA POLLETO, PHD, DVM, ECO-CERT, BRAZIL, MARTIN POTTER, PHD, CONSULTANT IN ANIMAL WELFARE, UK AND ADVISING MEMBER OF EIG, MOHAN RAJ, PHD, BRISTOL UNIVERSITY, UK, DR. JAN SHEARER, IOWA STATE UNIVERSITY, CAROLYN STULL, PHD, SCHOOL OF VETERINARY MEDICINE, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, DAVIS, JANICE SWANSON, PHD, MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY, WILLIAM VANDRESSER, DVM, RETIRED EXTENSION VETERINARIAN, JULIA WRATHALL, PHD, RSPCA, UK, ADROALDO ZANELLA, PHD, PROFESSOR, EDINBURGH UNIVERSITY, THE CREDIBILITY OF OUR PROGRAM RESTS WITH FARMERS AND RANCHERS MEETING THE HIGH WELFARE STANDARDS WE SET BY PASSING ANNUAL INSPECTIONS. THE PROGRAM ALSO MUST INSPECT PROCESSING PLANTS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE SLAUGHTER OF THE ANIMALS IS HUMANE AND THE HANDLING OF THE ANIMALS BEFORE SLAUGHTER IS GENTLE. IN ADDITION, TRACEABILITY AUDITS ARE PERFORMED ON ALL PRODUCTS, ENSURING THAT EVERY PACKAGE, CARTON OR CASE THAT HAS THE CERTIFIED HUMANE LOGO ON IT CAN BE TRACED BACK TO THE FARM, BARN, FLOCK OR HERD THAT WAS INSPECTED AND CERTIFIED. HFAC CONTINUES TO BE THE ONLY ANIMAL WELFARE CERTIFICATION ORGANIZATION TO CONDUCT TRACEABILITY AUDITS. THIS REQUIRES THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF INSPECTORS. THE FIRST ARE THOSE THAT HAVE SPECIES-SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE AND DO THE ON FARM INSPECTIONS. THEY ARE USUALLY UNIVERSITY PROFESSORS WITH A PHD IN ANIMAL SCIENCE OR A DVM AND HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF EXPERTISE ON THE SPECIES THEY ARE INSPECTING. ADDITIONALLY, SLAUGHTER/PROCESSOR INSPECTIONS REQUIRE A DIFFERENT EXPERTISE. FOR EXAMPLE, ONLY POULTRY SCIENTISTS OR POULTRY VETERINARIANS WOULD BE CONSIDERED TO INSPECT POULTRY ON THE FARM. EVEN WITH COWS, SCIENTISTS OR VETERINARIANS WITH EXPERIENCE IN DAIRY COWS HAVE DIFFERENT EXPERTISE THAN THOSE WITH BEEF CATTLE EXPERIENCE. THESE INSPECTORS ARE SPECIALLY TRAINED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT TO LOOK FOR DURING THE SLAUGHTER PROCESS AND HOW TO RECOGNIZE INSENSIBILITY AND CAREFUL HANDLING TECHNIQUES. FINALLY, THE TRACEABILITY AUDITORS UNDERSTAND HOW TO LOOK FOR SEPARATION AND SEGREGATION OF PRODUCTS, HOW TO DO IN/OUT AUDITS TO MAKE SURE THE AMOUNT OF PRODUCT THAT COMES IN IS THE SAME AMOUNT THAT GOES OUT, AND THAT NON-CERTIFIED PRODUCT DOES NOT END UP IN PACKAGES WITH THE CERTIFIED HUMANE SEAL. WITH EVERY PRODUCER WHO AGREES TO ABIDE BY HUMANE FARM ANIMAL CARE'S, ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS, THOUSANDS MORE ANIMALS BENEFIT, AND MANY MORE FARMERS HAVE A CHANCE TO SEE THAT THEY, TOO, CAN CHANGE THE WAY THEY RAISE ANIMALS WITHOUT FEARING FOR THEIR BOTTOM LINE. FUNDING RECEIVED HAS HELPED HFAC BRING MANY SMALL FARMS, WHOSE INSPECTION FEES ARE WAIVED, INTO OUR PROGRAM. OUR PROGRAM MANUAL DESCRIBES THE NUMBER OF ANIMALS THAT QUALIFY A FARM FOR THE "SMALL FARM EXEMPTION." IF A FARM MEETS THAT CRITERIA, HFAC WAIVES THESE FEES IN ORDER TO ENSURE THAT EVERY PRODUCER THAT IS WILLING TO MAKE AND SUSTAIN THE CHANGES NECESSARY TO BECOME CERTIFIED HUMANE CAN DO SO- NO MATTER HOW SMALL. ALL FARMS AND PROCESSING PLANTS ARE INSPECTED ANNUALLY TO VERIFY THAT THEY ARE MEETING ALL THE REQUIREMENTS AS DESCRIBED IN OUR ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS. (THE STANDARDS ARE AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD BY CONSUMERS AND PRODUCERS ALIKE FROM OUR WEB SITE AT WWW.CERTIFIEDHUMANE.ORG). HFAC HAS CREATED AN INFRASTRUCTURE AND PROCESSES THAT MEET THE HIGHEST INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS FOR A CERTIFICATION BODY. THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE CERTIFIED HUMANE PROGRAM ARE THE RESULT OF A COMMITTED STAFF, VOLUNTEERS, SUPPORTERS, AS GENEROUS CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE PUBLIC AND FOUNDATIONS, AND LOYAL CONSUMER WHO REQUEST AND SHOP FOR CERTIFIED HUMANE PRODUCTS.

IF AN INSPECTOR HAS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST THEY WILL NOT BE ASSIGNED AN INSPECTION WHERE A CONFLICT MAY EXIST (SUCH AS THEY MIGHT DO SOME CONSULTING WORK FOR COMPANY/PRODUCER).
