The Second Chance Program is a unique partnership between the Society of Humane Friends and the Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Department. The program gives carefully selected inmates at the local jail the opportunity to give back to society by providing foster care and obedience skills to animal control dogs slated to be euthanized. The inmates learn marketable skills while training the dogs and have a chance to return something positive back to the community.
