Mission Statement: Working with emergency services to educate the public about disaster preparedness, shelter and evacuate animals during a disaster, and assist with human rescue when requested.
Vision Statement: A prepared world, where animals are rescued and sheltered compassionately during disasters.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we're going to have to make adjustments to our 2021 New Volunteer Training.
We'll be doing a 6-hour Orientation and Awareness Training for New Volunteers via Zoom on January 16. After that initial training, if you like what you see and wish to respond with NVADG, you'll be put in contact with Butte County Animal Control for the next steps of a background check, swearing in as a Butte County Disaster Worker, and being assigned a NVADG badge. New Volunteer training will continue each month. As soon as possible we will begin in-person training again for new and returning volunteers.

It's an exciting time to be a NVADG volunteer; we are moving to an electronic system for animal tracking and we expect a lengthy fire season due to the dry fuel. Join us!

NVADG held our last annual training for returning volunteers in January at the Lake Oroville Golf and Events Center in Oroville. The venue, which overlooks beautiful Lake Oroville, was the perfect setting for dedicated volunteers to re-unite and kick off a new year of training and preparation for a disaster that we hope never comes again! 2021 Training will be virtually as outlined...
