It’s estimated that mental health conditions affect about 30% of service members and veterans returning from deployment. Meanwhile, animals are known to ease PTSD symptoms, depression, and loneliness, and increase happiness. To help unite Vets and Pets, the UCSPCA invites individuals with a valid military ID or proof of service to find a new companion at https://www.ucspca.org/how-to-adopt, with a 50% reduced adoption fee through the month of November. Adoptions are by appointment only.
