The vaccine and microchip clinic initiative is part of AWARENH’s commitment to supporting the health and wellbeing of pets in the community through accessible and affordable services. Vaccinations and microchipping, as well as proper pet nutrition, are essential tools for keeping pets safe and healthy.

AWARENH offers these low-cost vaccine and microchip clinics on the first Saturday of every month, providing ongoing opportunities for pet owners to maintain their pets’ health at an affordable cost.

The free educational class is being offered because AWARENH understands that regular veterinary visits aren’t always financially possible for every family — but access to reliable, trustworthy information is crucial to help pet owners make informed decisions about their pets' health and care.
