The Center for Animal Protection and Education (CAPE) is a non profit 501(c) 3 organization whose goals are to actively educate people about the plight of animals in society today. We provide sanctuary for homeless animals, humane education programs for children and adults, advocacy campaigns addressing current animal issues, and information for people who have specific questions or problems concerning animals. Through these endeavors, CAPE's aim is to reduce animal suffering, heighten awareness, and bring people and animals together in peaceful co-existence.
