Less than 3% of American students receive humane education, yet it's one of the strongest predictors of ethical leadership. In this powerful episode of Better Life for Animals, host Cheryl Moss speaks with Danielle Hanosh, co-founder of LEAP (Leaders for Ethics, Animals, and the Planet) and Blackberry Creek Farm Animal Sanctuary.

A former middle school teacher, Danielle shares how her passion for education and animal welfare inspired a national movement that’s transforming farm sanctuaries into youth leadership hubs. LEAP is a compassionate alternative to 4-H and FFA, teaching students public speaking, ethical decision-making, climate literacy, and animal protection—without compromising their empathy.

In This Episode:

Why sanctuaries are ideal spaces for leadership development
The heartbreaking truth behind traditional youth ag programs like 4-H
How LEAP empowers kids to question the norm and speak up for animals
Stories of student transformation—including one child who found their voice
How your sanctuary can become a certified LEAP hub
The importance of empathy in solving the climate, mental health, and compassion crises

Danielle’s mission is clear: raise ethical leaders, not just animal advocates.

Whether you're an educator, sanctuary operator, or advocate for change, this episode will leave you inspired to reimagine how the next generation learns about animals, the planet, and their own power to lead.
