Jefferson Protection and Animal Welfare Services

Jefferson Protection & Animal Welfare Services is dedicated to improving the community by providing compassionate care for animals in Harvey, Louisiana. Our mission centers around saving and protecting animals through education, treatment, and advocacy.

We offer a range of services including holding lost pets for owners, adopting out homeless animals, investigating animal cruelty complaints, and accepting stray or surrendered pets by appointment. We also provide resources like pet licensing and emergency preparedness information.

JPAWS is actively seeking volunteers to assist with dog walking at our Animal Shelters! By lending a hand, you can bring happiness to shelter dogs while enjoying some exercise.
