REGION 2

The Region 2 Animal Response Team (R2ART) enjoys a strong relationship with the Connecticut Department of Emergency Management and Homeland Security (DEMHS) and similarly the support of the Region 2 Regional Emergency Planning Team Steering Committee. In Region 2, we have two large trailers that have cages, crates, and food/water bowls to shelter 500 animal.  Each trailer also contains a stand-alone shelter with a generator, heating, and lights.

In 2010, we held two training events and are looking forward to future events in 2011 and beyond. There are presently over 30 volunteers listed with the Connecticut State Animal Response Team in Region 2. We are grateful for the enthusiasm and dedication of our volunteers and are always looking for new members.

The Region 2 ESF-11 is co-chaired by Rick George, the Director of Milford Animal Control.  The Region 2 equipment is housed in Milford, but available for use throughout the region at the discretion of DEMHS.
