    The PAWS Chicago Community Outreach team is composed of five different programs, each working in tandem to address pet overpopulation and pet resource inequities in Chicago’s most underserved neighborhoods.

    * PAWS for Life - our door-to-door, relationship-building outreach program that removes barriers to spay/neuter and preventative care for pets. Since launching this program in 2014, we’ve provided free services to 17,000 pets in Englewood, West Englewood, Woodlawn and Back of the Yards.

    * Community Medicine - where we provide complimentary weekly illness and injury veterinary care at our Englewood Outreach Center.

    * Pet Help Hotline - where we connect residents to pet services, problem-solve issues around pet care and behavior, and counsel pet owners about their pets. Receives 200 calls a day from South Side residents looking for help with their pets.

    * Pet Food Pantry - distributes donated pet food to residents (about 25,000lbs/year), based out of our Englewood Outreach Center.

    * Community Cats - creates access to trap-neuter-return services for residents who feed outdoor cats.
