Compassion Over Coffee

Gather around a religious text or thoughtful book to explore compassion for animals. This welcoming program supports religious-text and book studies rooted in your community’s beliefs and values.

First studies piloted; more traditions welcome

Growing through community.

Compassion Over Coffee is a flexible home for religious-text and book studies across faith traditions. AOC’s first studies explored the Bible, drawing in part on CreatureKind materials, and the book For the Love of Animals. We welcome collaborators to develop studies rooted in other faiths.

Bring it into your community.

Torah, Quran, and other tradition-specific studies are invitations for future collaboration. Their study guides are not yet available. We welcome leaders and educators who would like to help develop them.
