ASPCA Partner Communities

There are four animal organizations in Austin involved with this project. The Austin Partners are Animal Trustees of Austin (ATA), Austin Humane Society (AHS), Emancipet and Town Lake Animal Center (TLAC). ASPCA knows there are no “quick fixes” to ending the unnecessary euthanasia of animals. They do know and have proof that collaboration among all groups in a community in striving to reduce the euthanasia of these animals can work.
