No, the Humane Society of Broward County is a private, non profit, 5013 organization. Each Humane Society is independent and not affiliated with each other. It is very confusing because so many share similar names. The HSUS and AHA are national organizations that work to protect all animals. They do not operate any shelters that adopt out dogs or cats. Are the Humane Society of Broward County and Broward County Animal Care and Regulation (BCACR) the same organization No, the Humane Society of Broward County accepts pets that are surrendered by their owners and relies on donations and fees from adoptions and fundraising events to operate. The BCACR is a county organization that is supported by tax dollars. They are responsible for picking up stray pets and ensuring pets are licensed.
