Missy Woodward of Critter Crusades interviews Steve Wayland, Director of Housing Education for Paws/LA (Pets Are Wonderful Support Los Angeles).
PAWS/LA is dedicated to preserving the healing bond between disenfranchised individuals and their companion animals; enriching their overall quality of life; and sustaining their independent living.
PAWS/LA was founded in 1989 in response to the companion animal-related crises faced by residents of Los Angeles County who were financially and physically debilitated by HIV/AIDS.
Since that time, the agency has expanded its scope to assist low-income seniors and any low-income individual living with a chronic or life-threatening illness.
PAWS/LA currently serves more than 1,700 disenfranchised animal guardians and their 2,000+ companion animals.
