Program areas at The Anti-Cruelty Society
Shelter Services: The Society works to match adoptable animals with suitable and permanent homes. The Society is an open-door shelter, meaning it accepts any animal in need 365 days a year. The Foster Program provides temporary homes for animals in need of special care prior to permanent placement. The Society's Humane Investigations Department provides pickup and rescue of neglected, abused, injured, and stray and unwanted animals and investigates reports of animal cruelty and abuse. The Society provides assistance with pet behavior issues through its behavior hotline and dog training programs.
Community Programs: Our Community Programs Department, which facilitates many of these external interactions, is divided into two separate areas of focus: Humane Education and Volunteer Services. Our Humane Education programs provide age-appropriate presentations on a number of subjects connected to our mission to a wide audience in Chicago's public and private schools and the general community. The Society also has a very strong Volunteer Program involving 700 regular volunteers augmenting the work in the shelter and clinic. The Volunteer Program supports a strong corporate volunteer component as well as many opportunities for fostering companion animals. One additional external resource we provide is our field services department which travels throughout Chicago investigating reports of animal abuse and neglect. These humane investigations help educate the public on responsible pet ownership, encourage relinquishment of animals in untenable situations, and ultimately rescue hundreds of hurting and traumatized animals each year.
Veterinary and Clinical Services: The Society maintains a veterinary staff providing spay and neuter services to pets of the general public and to other animal welfare groups that do not have access to low-cost services. The Society also operates a charity veterinary clinic providing general veterinary services to clients who cannot afford these vital services for their companion animals. The veterinary staff provides immediate post-adoption services for animals adopted through the shelter and full veterinary services for animals in the Society's care.
