In 2021, we helped 8,269 animals find new adoptive homes, and reached more than 200,000 people with our programs and message of compassion and humane treatment. NHS is contracted to provide animal control services in a 400 square mile area. We provide medical care, shelter, and a second chance for stray, lost, abandoned, and abused animals in our jurisdiction.
