THE ANIMAL RESCUE COALITION (ARC) is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to end the killing of adoptable dogs and cats in Sarasota and Manatee Counties by means of a proactive spay/neuter program, comprehensive adoption program, and various other programs designed to recognize the profound benefits to people of animal companionship.

The ARC Mobile Spay/Neuter Clinic has spayed and neutered more than 18,500 dogs and cats since 2002, significantly reducing pet overpopulation in our community.

ARC's is a collaborative effort which includes local animal welfare organizations, both private and public sector, and partnerships with Sarasota and Manatee Counties.

We support initiatives to:
* Reduce pet overpopulation.
* Increase adoptions.
* Promote responsible pet guardianship.

Foster and Adoption Programs have helped hundreds of homeless cats and dogs find loving permanent homes.
