This collaborative effort, called the ASPCA Partnership, includes several organizations and will involve annual planning meetings to determine and monitor goals, strategies and needs; a grant allocation process; and access to ASPCA resources, expertise and guidance as well as strategic planning support, statistical analysis, training and participation in ground-breaking research projects.
In 2012, approximately 28,700 homeless animals entered the Albuquerque partner agencies. Aside form overcrowding the shelters, some of the other challenges facing Albuquerque are the need for more lost animals to be reunited with their owners, an increase in targeted spay/neuter, and more pet adoptions.
Since the ASPCA began its Partnership program in 2007, more than 1 million animals have been adopted, returned to owners or spay/neutered as a result of the exceptional collaboration among partner agencies in each community.
