North Providence Animal Welfare Society (NPAWS) is a 100% volunteer, non-profit 501(c)3 organization committed to continuing to advocate for an adequate shelter and services while helping to keep pets out of the existing shelter system. To do so, we’re planning to assist the community with caring for their pets, helping with food and supplies, spay and neuters and seeking rescue help if surrender is necessary. We’re also looking to help manage stray cat populations through a trap-neuter-release program in partnership with local clinics.
