Welcome to Chicago Pet Rescue's Informed Pet Education Training University

CPR believes educating our volunteers is the first step towards preventing animals from becoming homeless.  If we give you the tool to be the best volunteer you will help get people in to volunteer, adopt and donate.

Thank you for educating yourself first so you can then educate others.
