APA! has always operated outside of the “typical” role that animal
welfare plays. Our teams and programming have contributed to thousands
of lives saved and as we’ve continued to grow our organization and
lifesaving, we recognized that much more needs to be done for the people
who have given their time, talents and love to the animals who need us
most!
Our Social Work Department began in 2022, led by
Alexis Telfair-Garcia creating a mental health resource for staff,
volunteers and fosters.
While May is Mental Health Month,
APA! will continue to strive for greater mental health awareness and
support every month so that all people and animals within and around our
organization feel loved, supported and experience growth.
