Our Mission

The Humane Society of Kent County promotes the humane treatment and responsible care of animals in West Michigan through education, example, placement and protection.

Our Vision
 

Our vision is to build a more compassionate community where all animals are given the care they deserve.

Our Values & Beliefs

• OPEN DOOR POLICY
  We accept all animals that are brought to us for help.

• BEST CARE STANDARDS
  We provide humane and responsible care for all animals and facilitate placement to appropriate homes.

• COLLABORATION BRINGS RESULTS
  We cannot achieve our vision on our own. It requires collaboration with animal welfare organizations and other community partners in order to achieve our common goals.

• EDUCATION CHANGES BEHAVIOR
  Education directed toward an understanding of responsible pet care; the pet overpopulation problem; the need to spay and neuter pets can change citizen behavior over time.
