Animal Welfare Association (AWA), founded in 1948 is a private, non-profit, 501(c)3 animal welfare organization, that operates the oldest and largest low-cost spay/neuter clinic, adoption center and no-kill animal shelter in South Jersey. AWA does not receive funds from the government or national groups, they rely upon local donations to fund their life-saving programs.  Through a variety of innovative programs including adoptions, veterinary services, pet therapy, trap-neuter-return and humane education, AWA strives to ensure that animal companionship is accessible to all.

NEW ROAD provided construction management services including pre-con and contract negotiations during construction of a new shelter building and clinic renovations.

Project scope included:

  • Partial removal of existing old clinic
  • Addition of a new 2-story facility
  • Connection of the new building and the existing clinic must be coordinated to avoid disruption of the client’s daily services.
  • Building accessibility improvements, upgrades to the security/IT systems, selective site improvements, utility upgrades, and installation of an enclosed dog park..
