Join the MOVEMENT

The Improve OCAS Movement is a coalition of animal rights advocates fighting for local elected officials to improve the Orange County Animal Services Division and the shelter infrastructure.

What We Are Advocating For:

Shelter Infrastructure Improvements

Infrastructure improvements from better air-conditioning, kennel separators, soundproofing, and increased overflow capacity are inexpensive ways of saving dogs’ lives within the shelter.

Increased Transparency within the OCAS System

Transparency on medical cases, behavioral issues, euthanasia track records, increased access to data, and public records would help the community understand the internal needs of OCAS.

Stronger Community & Rescue Engagement

Many volunteers, rescues, and supporters are working past their limits, trying to facilitate adoptions with little interaction with the shelter staff.


“It Ends with ART”

Read the story of ART, a dog who didn’t deserve to die.

Our Tax Dollars Should Not Fund Cruel and Inhumane Conditions at OCAS

Every dog deserves to have their story told. Especially when their lives are at risk of euthanasia due to conditions they are subjected to outside of their control.
