VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
A house RESOLUTION
To recognize the members of the staff of Pawmetto Lifeline and to wish them success as they begin the Animal Advocacy Association of South Carolina and as they continue to provide South Carolina Police Academy with accredited training for animal control officers and law enforcement officers across our great State.
Whereas, Pawmetto Lifeline was founded in December 1999 with the aim of creating a no-kill community for companion pets through education, veterinary medical services, adoptions, and pet retention services. The organization has grown to serve regions across the State of South Carolina; and
Whereas, as of March 19, 2024, Pawmetto Lifeline created an association of like-minded officers, the Animal Advocacy Association of South Carolina, with a goal of providing exceptional service to both people and animals through respect, integrity, compassion, empathy, and justice; and
Whereas, the association's mission is to protect and preserve the well-being of all animals through the effective and efficient enforcement of local and state statues pertinent to animals; and
Whereas, the association's vision is to create a trained, professional corps of officers and staff dedicated to the enforcement of local and state statutes in order to create a safe and secure environment for animals in South Carolina; and
Whereas, the association's goals are to coordinate certified training courses through the South Carolina Police Academy, enhance the image of the day-to-day work of the officers, develop networking opportunities, set a standard of professionalism, and organize an annual educational conference; and
Whereas, the officers in the field of animal care and law enforcement are respected for the service they provide with the end goal of achieving the highest quality of life for the animals and citizens in the State of South Carolina. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize the members of the staff of Pawmetto Lifeline and wish them success as they begin the Animal Advocacy Association of South Carolina and as they continue to provide South Carolina Police Academy with accredited training for animal control officers and law enforcement officers across our great State.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Animal Advocacy Association of South Carolina.
