About Us
Our Work
AMRRIC’s work focuses on companion animals. To date, the biggest need has been around dogs, which have been the focus of many of our resources and projects. However, recognising the increase in cats being kept as pets in remote communities, AMRRIC’s focus has broadened. AMRRIC’s work involves facilitating improved community access to culturally relevant services, information and educational resources for pets and their owners.
