The American Anti-Vivisection Society is a nonprofit organization based in Jenkintown, Pennsylvania. Founded in 1883, it is the first U.S. nonprofit devoted to ending animal experimentation in research, testing, and education, pursuing this aim through education, advocacy, and the development of alternative methods. It engages a broad audience, including individuals, students and parents, educators, grassroots groups, corporate and government decision makers, and members of the scientific community.

In the nonprofit sector focused on animal welfare and scientific ethics, AAVS seeks to reduce or eliminate animal use in science by promoting education and advocating for alternatives. The organization employs a small to mid-sized team and operates in the Philadelphia region. It has earned external recognition as a Top-Rated Charity by Great Nonprofits for eight consecutive years as of 2019, and in April 2019 it launched an Instagram account to broaden outreach.
