[vc_section][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vcex_heading text=”Saving Pennsylvania’s Animals in Emergencies” tag=”h1″][vc_column_text font_size=”16″]The Pennsylvania Animal Response Team is available 24/7 to protect animals impacted by natural or man-made disasters from fires to floods, highway accidents to hurricanes.
We do so by training volunteers to provide emergency assistance and sheltering who join our county animal response teams. Our volunteers not only provide emergency response but also fundraising, outreach, veterinary services, and other support to keep animals safe in our communities. Training is provided for free to all our volunteers.
