Low Income Vaccinations
The Animal Care League understands that everyone wants the best care possible for their pets, but may be faced with financial difficulties.  While we recommend that every pet has an annual examination, consultation and vaccinations or other tests and treatments from their full service veterinarian, we know that is not an option for everyone.  The Animal Care League offers afternoon appointments for low cost vaccinations to families that qualify as being low income.  Only spayed or neutered animals are eligible for this program.  


To make an appointment, one must first obtain a voucher from the Walk in Ministry (848 Lake St. Oak Park, IL).  This voucher indicates that you are eligible for low income pricing, however it does not cover the cost of the vaccinations.  Payment is due at the time of services.  The following guidelines are used by the Walk in Ministry to determine low income status.

Household Size            Gross Monthly Income Limit
1                                        $1,174
2                                        $1,579
3                                        $1,984
4                                        $2,389
5                                        $2,794
6                                        $3,200
7                                        $3,605
