NEADS Is My Home, Too!

Jun 4, 2025

Here’s something you might not know about our new Veterinary Center project: it involves careful planning to protect the beautiful natural environment surrounding our campus. Alongside caring for our amazing dogs and dedicated staff, NEADS embraces our role as stewards of the important wetland areas near our campus. These habitats are vital ecosystems, supporting clean water and providing a home for diverse wildlife, including various mammals, birds, amphibians, and yes, even turtles.

As we construct our much-needed facility, we are also taking great care to protect these surrounding natural areas. Our construction plan incorporates important environmental protections required when working near wetlands. This involves measures like establishing clear work boundaries, using protective barriers such as silt fences to manage runoff and erosion, ensuring our contractors understand the environmental sensitivities, and maintaining careful site management throughout the project. It’s a process that underlines our commitment to responsible development and respect for the natural environment we share.

This commitment to responsible action reflects the care central to our mission at NEADS. The new Veterinary Center is a crucial part of that mission, allowing us to provide top-notch care for our Service Dogs right here on campus. We invite you to learn more about the Veterinary Center here and be part of this vital project bymaking a donation today.
