THE AWRN

One Network. Every Partner Connected.

The Animal Welfare Resource Network is shared infrastructure that connects shelters, rescues, veterinary clinics, and community organizations into one prevention platform. Every partner connects to every other partner. Not just through us. To each other.

The Problem

Animal welfare organizations across the country run on disconnected systems. Shelters use one platform. Rescues use another. Vet clinics have their own. Nobody shares data. Nobody shares capacity. When a family calls looking for help, they get bounced between organizations that cannot see what the others are doing.

The result: animals fall through the cracks, families give up, and resources get wasted because nobody can see the full picture.

What AWRN Changes

AWRN puts every partner on the same platform. Shared referral pathways. Shared capacity data. Real-time prevention tracking across every organization in the network. When a family calls any partner, that partner can see what every other partner has available and make the right connection in minutes.

Animal-Angels Foundation builds and administers the shared infrastructure. But the network does not revolve around us. It connects everyone to everyone.

HOW IT WORKS

Built for the Way You Work

AWRN is not another software you have to learn from scratch. It is infrastructure that sits alongside what you already do.

1

Partner Directory

Every organization in the network is visible to every other organization. Services offered, capacity, contact info, and service area. Updated in real time by each partner.

2

Shared Referral Pathways

When a family needs something you cannot provide, you find who can in seconds. Referrals are tracked so nothing falls through the cracks and you can see outcomes.

3

Capacity Broadcasting

Partners broadcast available kennel space, foster openings, appointment slots, and program availability. Everyone in the network sees it. No more phone-tag to find an open spot.

4

Intake Diversion Tracking

Every time a partner prevents a shelter intake, it gets recorded. You see your own numbers and the network-wide impact. Real data that proves prevention works.

5

Crisis Radar

Automated monitoring of social media, news, and community channels for emerging animal welfare situations in your area. Partners get alerts before crises become emergencies.

6

Prevention Data

Network-wide dashboards showing intake trends, diversion rates, program outcomes, and resource utilization across every county. Data that drives decisions and proves impact to funders.

THE VISION

One Network. Nationwide.

AWRN launched in seven counties in Central Alabama. But the platform is built to go everywhere. The goal is to get every animal welfare organization in the country on the same system, connected to each other, sharing data and resources in real time.

When a shelter in Knoxville can see available foster homes in Birmingham, and a vet clinic in Colorado can refer a family to crisis support in Minnesota, the system works the way it should. Not organizations working alone. Everyone working together on shared infrastructure.

If you want to see it, we will show you. If you want to join, the door is open.

QUESTIONS

Common Questions About AWRN

Do I have to be in Alabama to join?
+
No. AWRN is built to work anywhere. We launched in Central Alabama, but the platform is designed for national scale. If you do animal welfare work, you can join from wherever you are.
Does AWRN replace our current software?
+
For shelters and rescues, you have two options. You can keep running your current software and connect it to the AWRN, so you get shared referrals, capacity broadcasting, and network-wide data without changing your daily operations. Or you can transfer your shelter or rescue operations to the AWRN platform entirely and use it as your primary system. Either way works. For other partner types like vet clinics, community organizations, and landlords, the AWRN is an additional layer on top of whatever you already use.
What does "interconnected" mean in practice?
+
Every partner connects to every other partner. Not just through AAF. If Partner A needs something from Partner C, they connect directly. AAF builds and maintains the infrastructure, but the network does not revolve around any single organization.
What if we are a small organization with limited resources?
+
That is exactly who AWRN is built for. Small organizations get the most benefit because the network gives them access to resources they could never build alone. If you provide in-kind services, your access is free.
How do I see it before committing?
+
Schedule a 20-minute call with us. We will walk you through the platform, answer your questions, and show you exactly how your organization would plug into the network. No pressure, no sales pitch.
What is the Founding window?
+
Partners who join during the Founding window earn a permanent Founding Partner designation and lock in current pricing. When the AWRN goes live at full capacity, the window closes and pricing increases 25-30%. Founding status will not be available after that point at any price.
