You can volunteer to help animals
in disasters by joining SMART!
The State of Massachusetts Animal
Response Team (SMART) is a network
of organizations, agencies, and individuals
who are committed to responding to the
needs of the animal population in
disaster situations in the State
of Massachusetts.
Within SMART are seven working teams: Shelter Operations, Search &

Services, Animal Control Officer and Specialized Animal Services. During a
disaster any one of these teams may be activated by the SMART Team
