“As a proud champion of animal welfare, I am truly pleased to see the City’s expanded investment in shelter facilities that will improve the quality of care of our four-legged friends. The center in East New York, which has been in long need of upgrades, will benefit from an estimated $27.3 million in renovation funds that will expand our adoption capacity and allow us to care for more animals. My administration has helped families across Brooklyn find pets through our shelter system, and the investments by DOHMH and ACC will extend our shared capacity to find countless more ‘forever homes’ across our borough.”
