What does ASPCA do?

Updated: Feb 19



The ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preventing animal cruelty and promoting the well-being of animals. Founded in 1866, the ASPCA works on various fronts to protect animals, including:

  1. Animal Rescue and Care: They rescue animals from abuse, neglect, and natural disasters. This includes emergency response teams that help in large-scale rescues, such as animal hoarding cases or large-scale cruelty investigations.

  2. Advocacy: The ASPCA works to pass stronger laws and policies at the local, state, and national levels to protect animals. They lobby for laws that prevent cruelty, promote better treatment of animals, and encourage animal welfare.

  3. Veterinary Services: The ASPCA provides medical care, including spaying and neutering, through their veterinary clinics. They also run programs that assist people in need with access to pet care.

  4. Education: They offer educational programs aimed at teaching the public about responsible pet ownership, the importance of animal welfare, and how to recognize and report abuse.

  5. Adoption and Rehoming: The ASPCA runs adoption programs, partnering with shelters to find homes for animals in need.

In short, the ASPCA's goal is to prevent cruelty, provide direct care, and advocate for the protection of animals across the United States.
