Caring Kids Summer Camps

Each summer the Humane Rescue Alliance offers several week-long Caring Kids Camps. These day camps provide youth with an inside look at the day-to-day operations of HRA's shelter and medical center. Campers have the opportunity to meet and interact with dogs, cats, and small animals at our shelter. They participate in activities that help to promote adoptions, provide enrichment for shelter animals, and explore opportunities to become life-long animal welfare advocates. 

Camp offerings change from year to year, but all HRA camps include companion animal time and informational sessions that encourage kindness, compassion, and social action.
