Mission: To make second chances possible through the human/animal connection.
We are a group of dedicated people who have the audacity to dream for a compassionate, humane community for our animals. While maintaining that animal abuse is the link to human violence, we also celebrate the human/animal connection from a place of spirituality which sustains us emotionally, touches the hearts of even the most hardened and provides us with unconditional love.
The Animal Protection League is a 501(c)3, non-profit organization dedicated to the welfare of animals and people.
