The mission of Contra Costa Humane Society is to empower our community to improve the quality of life for animals and decrease euthanasia rates.  Through our programs and services we connect with individuals and private and public organizations, to adopt pets, reduce the number of unwanted animals, and educate the public to foster compassion, responsibility, and respect towards animals

CCHS operates the following key programs in Contra Costa County:

Adoption Program: CCHS takes companion dogs and cats from local public shelters and places them in foster homes until they find their loving forever homes. Animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped and vaccinated before adoption.

AniMeals: In partnership with the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano, CCHS distributes pet food and supplies to our neediest families, in order to help them keep their pets. We receive donations from community groups, businesses, and individuals.

Education and Resources: CCHS helps educate the public on animal-care issues, including owner pet-care issues and advocacy.

Emergency Medical Fund: CCHS provides financial assistance to low-income Contra Costa County residents for their spayed or neutered companion dog or cat that is in need of emergency medical attention.

Foster Program: Foster homes provide temporary refuge, care and companionship to homeless dogs and cats until we find their permanent homes. CCHS pays for all food, medical and supply expenses.

Kitty Corner: A first-of-its-kind collaborative partnership with Contra Costa County Animal Services, Kitty Corner is a private shelter for adult and special needs cats. Cats enjoy spacious enclosures at night and free-roam during the day while awaiting adoptive homes.

Spay Neuter Assistance Program: SNAP reduces the number of unwanted pets in our county by providing financial assistance to low-income residents to have their animals spayed or neutered. We also provide services for feral cats.
