What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Jameson Humane is working to transform the understanding of the interconnectivity of animals, humans and our plant. By caring for animals and being stewards of the earth, we are venturing down the path of sustainable technology with the objective of being a net-zeero facility. We seek to make a tangible difference through animal welfare and avocacy, regenerative farming and agriculture, and green bulding design.

Our programs

What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

Special Need Animals Program

Providing long term emotional and medical care for animals with chronic or terminal illnesses, seniors, or animals that have special needs,

Population(s) Served
Adults

Finding permanent homes for homeless animals

Population(s) Served
Adults

With the ultimate goal of keeping responsible pet owners/families and their pets together, Jameson Animal Rescue Ranch (JARR) administers funds (via application process) to assist Napa County residents and their pets with the following needs and expenses:

1. Food;

2. Needed emergency medical attention and care;

3. Behaviorist in cases where animal behavior warrants it;

4. Landlord-required pet deposit.

As we value the family unit staying together, JARR believes these proactive and preventative measures go a long way. Tearing animals away from their families is painful on all involved, so we strive to keep pets together with their loving owners!

Population(s) Served
Adults

Working in partnership with the Napa Food Bank and Meals on Wheels, identify and supply animal food to families who need that kind of support. We hold monthly pet food drives to create community awareness of this need and to gather food.

Population(s) Served
Adults

This JARR program allows senior citizens, identified through our Meals on Wheels partner, to foster senior animals. Donors, seniors, and JARR come together to create an amazing experience for the animals. Donors’ support allows JARR to cover the costs of the food, vet bills, and other pet needs so seniors on limited incomes have the ability to truly nurture and enjoy the animals in their care. Thank you to our senior foster families and to the donors that make this program possible!

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Our world is at a tipping point. Since the advent of the industrial revolution, we have burned 1.4 trillion tons of carbon into the atmosphere, creating unprecedented climate disruption. The impact of all this is easy to see: severe storms, droughts, flood and fires, ice sheets melting and sea leels rising. We are working to change all of this to lead our community and the entire country in ending animal suffering while healing the plant.

Some of our programs we have instituted to deal with systemic problems in animal care and the environment are:

Senior Pet Wellness Program: The goal of this program is to keep responsible pet owners and their animals together.
We administer funds through an application/grant process to assist with emergency medical attention and surgeries, free spay/neuter services and vaccinations, training, landlord-required pet deposits and pet food.

Domestic Animal Well-Being Program: Through this program, Jameson rescues all domestic animals and provides either adoption/forever home services or lifetime sanctuary for those too ill, old or otherwise not available for adoption. Jameson relies on volunteers to foster animals, including pigs, chickens, sheep, horses, dogs, cats and bunnies, etc. We provide all necessary support including supplies, food and medical care.

Community Education, Outreach and Disaster Preparation Response: Jameson's community education and outreach occurs through its engagement with the community through activities which include providing help to senior citizens, low-income families and the homeless throughout the area who have pet companions. Jameson provides community disaster response education and recovery. Disasters include but are not limited to wildfires, earthquakes, pandemics, and blackouts.

We have a highly capable and trained staff to take care of the animals put in our care. We also have many volunteers who come to the ranch daily to feed and give attention to the animals in our care. We are recognized throughout the Bay Area as an outstanding organization, not only helping animals and humans, but providing assistance to other animal organizations in this area.

We have been highly successful with our senior pet wellness program enabling seniors to stay at home with their pets and ensure they have the care they need provided by our staff

We have been very successful during the recent wildfires in our area by saving animals, providing food and medical assistance and temporary homes for displaced animals.

We have been very successful in educating our community on how to care for their animals and how to reduce unwanted pregnancies by providing free spay/neuter clinics.
