Our comprehensive operations span from clinical services at the Companion Hospital, hands-on experience in our Animal Shelter, dynamic Pet Health Outreach Clinics, robust Humane Education initiatives, and the essential administrative functions such as Fundraising, Finance, Volunteer Coordination, and Communications.
This program is built on the premise of sharing and learning best practices, regardless of the size or scope of your organization.
