Mission Statement

Our mission is to ensure the safety and well-being of animals and enhance the relationship between individuals and pets through adoption, education, advocacy, compassion, and promotion of animal welfare. While our focus is the people and animals of Windham County and some of our programs require you be a resident, we strive to help pets and pet owners in need whenever we can.

Description

A Strategic Vision For Today & Tomorrow

Windham County Humane Society is working to create a vibrant, well-run and financially secure community-supported animal shelter that offers a variety of programs, services and facilities that promote the well-being and dignity of pets and other companion animals, and support their responsible stewardship by human caregivers.

Through our efforts, we aspire to:

• End animal cruelty, suffering and abandonment

• Cultivate a strong sense of community ownership in, awareness of, and advocacy for animal welfare issues

Through our efforts we strive to provide animals:

• Freedom from hunger and thirst
• Freedom from discomfort
• Freedom from pain, injury and disease
• Freedom to express normal behavior
• Freedom from fear and distress
