Shelter Services

Your local shelter is there for you -- American Humane Association is there for your local shelter.

We support America's shelters, humane societies and SPCAs.

These animal welfare organizations can turn to American Humane Association for resources, best practices, and ongoing education and training for their employees and volunteers. American Humane Association's support for shelters also involves helping them promote adoptions, reduce euthanasia rates, best serve their communities and spread the word about the important bond people share with animals.
