Protecting and providing a voice to homeless animals.
Description
The SPCA of Brevard is the largest private no-kill animal rescue group in Brevard county. We opened our doors to animals looking for homes over 40 years ago. We are proud to be a "Loving, Caring, Protecting", No-Kill shelter, which means that animals stay with us until they find their forever home.
We operate an adoption center, a low-cost clinic, and two thrift stores.
