How to Adopt

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Social distancing is changing how the world operates and animal shelters are no exception to the new order. For the Jacksonville Humane Society (JHS), that means reducing the number of staff members in the building, altering previously planned events, and changing how fostering and adoptions are done. We met our fundraising goal so we’re excited and appreciative of that,” Lindsay Layendecker, Jacksonville Humane Society Assistant Development Director said. Jacksonville Humane Society is the only shelter in Clay and Duval Counties still taking in stray animals. If you want to help but can’t adopt or foster, JHS said it is accepting donations of all kinds moving forward.
