Clinton County CART is hosting a Mock Shelter Training for Fully Trained CART Volunteers. See the following flyer for full details.
The County Animal Response Team (CART) is made up of volunteers trained and ready to respond to emergencies effecting pets and livestock. Volunteers can declare their interest in small animals (household pets) and/or large animals (horses, and livestock). Activities include animal care, transport, sheltering, uniting and more.
The CART is a specialty team of the Medical Reserve Corps (MRC), so CART volunteers must first join the MRC. CART members also need to complete 4 additional trainings. Get started today!
