New Organization Fills a Much-Needed Role
Training… networking… structure… resources… these are just a few of the things the Animal Cruelty and Animal Control Field are lacking in the state of Indiana. Hence, a new organization has surfaced: Hoosier Animal Law Officer (HALO), with a mission of developing a structured and humane field of professionals.
HALO was co-founded in 2017 by Boone County Deputy Hannah Fisher and Hamilton County Deputy Doug Sanford, and they have hit the ground running. “I’ve been in humane law enforcement for the last 15 years”, Sanford, HALO’s Vice President said. “After I transferred here from Michigan, I quickly realized the lack of consistency in tools and training across the state.”
Hannah, HALO’s President, agrees: “I am relatively new to this profession, and found that there is no consistency in how the job is done. There is minimal in-state training available and very little connectivity between the various persons doing the job. That needs to change, and HALO can implement those changes.”
HALO is comprised of Indiana animal control officers, humane law enforcement officers, animal cruelty investigators, and other persons in the Animal Cruelty and Animal Control Field. HALO also has a membership tier for persons who work in animal rescuing, rehabbing, and sheltering.
HALO is hosting a Call Out Event on Saturday, October 6 in Zionsville (Indy metro area) for persons interested in learning more. There will be guest speakers, equipment demos, giveaways, and resources. It is free to attend, and all are welcome. Membership applications will also be available.
