DescANIMAL SHELTERING, CARE & OUTREACH: THE CLEVELAND APL OPERATES A 30,000 SQUARE FOOT SHELTER AND ANIMAL CARE FACILITY WHERE ANIMALS THAT HAVE BEEN SURRENDERED BY THEIR OWNERS, BROUGHT IN BY GOOD SAMARITANS, TRANSFERRED IN FROM OTHER OVERCROWDED SHELTERS, OR SEIZED BY HUMANE INVESTIGATORS RECEIVE HUMANE SHELTER, CARE, AND TREATMENT.

IN 2015, A TOTAL OF 6,228 ANIMALS WERE ADOPTED OUT, RETURNED TO THEIR OWNERS, OR TRANSFERRED TO OTHER RESCUE GROUPS FOR ADOPTION.

IN 2015, PROJECT CARE PROVIDED RESOURCES TO APPROXIMATELY 770 ANIMALS OWNED BY LOW-INCOME RESIDENTS LIVING IN A TARGETED, UNDERSERVED AREA OF CLEVELAND, SO THAT THEY COULD STAY IN THEIR HOMES AND WITH THEIR OWN FAMILIES. THE APL RELIES ON THE SUPPORT OF PRIVATE DONORS AND VOLUNTEERS TO MAKE ALL OF THIS WORK POSSIBLE. THE APL IS NOT GOVERNED BY AND DOES NOT RECEIVE OPERATING SUPPORT FROM ANY NATIONAL ANIMAL WELFARE ORGANIZATIONS.Desc
