South County Animal Shelter (SCAS) Coalition was formed in response to the lack of pro-humane animal shelters serving Aliso Viejo, Lake Forest, Laguna Hills and Rancho Santa Margarita. SCAS is a coalition of four cities that have joined forces to establish a pro-humane animal shelter in their region. These cities still maintain a contract with the County Animal Shelter in Orange. SCAS Coalition's goal is to form a pro-humane animal care facility where adoptable animals will not be euthanized because of space constraints.
SCAS Coalition encourages citizens of these four cities to contact their city council members and demand a pro-humane animal shelter like those in our surrounding cities. If you'd like to help by writing a letter to your town, click here.
