Liberty Humane Society
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Liberty Humane Society is an animal shelter / humane society in New Jersey
[edit] Overview
The Liberty Humane Society was created in 1998 to work in partnership with Jersey City to build and manage a state-of-the-art animal shelter. Historically, Jersey City had contracted with the Hudson County SPCA to provide it with animal sheltering services, but the SPCA had proved to be an unsatisfactory provider. In 2002, after a state investigation revealed numerous abuses, mismanagement, and financial misdealings at the SPCA, the City dropped its contract and opened its own animal shelter in a converted garage. The LHS provided volunteer and financial support, and participated in managerial and hiring decisions with the City.
