Board of Directors

Animal Welfare Association is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of professional and knowledgeable volunteers who care deeply about the welfare of animals. They generously give their time and efforts to safeguard the organization’s vision, mission and values. The board is responsible for AWA’s strategic and long-range goals and ensures AWA’s strength and financial integrity.

The board members look forward to meeting donors, supporters, clients, other community members and their four-legged friends at AWA events. The board welcomes constructive feedback and will respond as appropriate when provided with full contact information: board@awanj.org

Any questions on the day-to-day operations of AWA including volunteering, adopting or about the clinic, please contact the appropriate AWA staff member or the Executive Director. Staff contact information here
