The animal rescue league of boston's vision is to confront animal cruelty and neglect at its ROOT causes. Through programs, services, and facilities focused on accessible animal care, public advocacy, and sustained ANTI-cruelty efforts, the animal rescue league of boston (ARL) is a resource for people and an unwavering champion for animals most in need. ARL's focus is to meet people and animals where they are, bringing veterinary and wellness services directly to those who need it most, so that animals are safe and healthy living in communities and out of shelters. ARL aligns its resources to support this vision through a coordination of existing programs and the development of new, community-based services. The impact of our work is seen in the lives of animals most in need across massachusetts, with the greatest effect in our primary service areas of greater boston, eastern massachusetts, and CAPE COD. ARL strives to provide high-quality direct animal care which meets BEST practice standards in animal welfare. To meet these standards, ARL pursues continuous improvement and innovation in program models and administrative operations, and ARL continually measures and evaluates our performance and impact. Acknowledging that our success rests UPON the skills and commitment of a well-trained and supported team of staff and volunteers, ARL is committed to cultivating an organization where they CAN excel. In turn, this ARL team collaborates with community groups and other animal welfare organizations to leverage even greater impact and positive outcomes for animals.
