SCAW advances the development, acceptance and implementation of high standards for the responsible use of animals. SCAW's work is respected and used by government regulators, scientists, veterinarians, administrators, others interested in developing responsible animal care and use policies and practices. SCAW sponsors educational meetings, organizes forums for discussion of new issues that involve research animal welfare which often lead to the publication of proceedings. In recent years, SCAW has focused on the definitions, development and evaluation of performance standards, research animal pain and distress, the special relationship between people and animals in a research environment, genetic engineering, animal welfare, proposed changes in regulations and guidelines in animal research. SCAW needs to continue increasing its efforts to provide information and resources to the research community, general public and media.
