San Antonio Standard

With a vision of changing the culture of pet ownership in San Antonio, San Antonio Animal Care Services has launched its Animal Care Services Strategic Plan. The City-sanctioned plan will guide the department’s support of core priorities that balance animal care and control. Available online now at SAACS.info/StrategicPlan, the plan acts as a departmental guiding document and includes five focus areas:

• support a safe community for people in their neighborhoods,
• protect the safety and humane treatment of pets,
• support the placement of pets for life,
• foster positive perceptions with the community,
• and empower a healthy and thriving workforce.

The comprehensive forty-four-page document was developed over a period of 18 months following a public survey, stakeholder meetings, and focus groups as well as industry best practice research.
