Chaffeeâs Got Heart Committee recognized Amber van Leuken, Executive Director for Ark-Valley Humane Society.Â
âPrior to COVID-19 we were shelter based,â van Leuken said. âBefore the stay-at-home order, the majority of animals came into our shelters and stayed there until they were adopted or reclaimed by their owners.â Â
Once stay-at-home came into effect, the shelter shifted to a foster-based model of care which is not the standard of care the majority of animals in the shelterâs care.Â
Ark-Valley also shifted to virtual services.Â
âWe first scrambled to get all our forms and service information available through our website and made it possible for people to pay through our website for our services,â van Leuken said.Â
