Welcome!
Welcome to the website and on-line directory for the Animal Welfare Network of Lane County. AWNLC is an umbrella organization formed by various animal welfare organizations in Lane County to work cooperatively with vision and compassion to improve the lives and health of all animals. We are pleased to collaborate with The Muddy Puddle, a website devoted to providing resources for companion animal rescue education - yet another way we network to provide more resources for our community.
An e-mail group has been set up for members to communicate with each other. If you are interested in joining, you can learn more about it here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/awnlc/
This website is the result of one major AWNLC project - a resource directory of Lane County animal welfare organizations. The paper version was originally published in 2002 and is updated annually. It is given free of charge to Lane County public safety offices, government agencies, libraries, schools, veterinary clinics, county shelters and rescue groups, and various pet-related businesses. Until the directory was published and distributed, there was no single place to look to find groups and organizations to which people could be directed, whether the concern was what to do about a stray animal or where someone could find financial assistance or veterinary care for their companion animals.
