Thanks to a grant from the Florida State Agricultural Response Team (www.flsart.org), we are partnering with the University of Florida's IFAS Extension Center and Pasco County Emergency Management to provide training on how to respond to local, state, and national disasters, save animals, and operate temporary emergency shelters.

When disaster strikes, Florida SARC's of trained volunteer responders will be there to shelter and protect Florida's companion animals.

This Awareness Level (Level 1) class will give you the knowledge and skills you need to work in an emergency animal shelter or pet-friendly shelter. It will also give you the expertise and practical experience required to become a emergency animal responder with FL SARC and support disasters and emergencies in and out of Florida. The Awareness Level Small Animal Emergency Sheltering class is certified by the Florida Department of Emergency Management and is required by FL SARC to respond and support companion animal sheltering deployments during emergencies and disasters.

There is a $40 administration fee for each participant. However, use the promo code SART to register for the course for FREE!

Upon successful completion of this class you will receive a complimentary Florida SARC uniform t-shirt. Choose your shirt size on the registration page. You may also order additional shirts or other items (if available) on the registration page.
