Elijah joined the PAHS team in June 2019 to aid in the efforts to end animal homelessness. Before joining PAHS, he received his Master’s degree in Animal Shelter Management while working with shelters and TNR organizations to improve their business processes and animal welfare best practices. His interest in animal welfare and nonprofit administration stems from his time working in the tech industry and New York City animal shelters. He knew he wanted a career where he could utilize his passion and education in animal sciences, along with his skills in business management. Currently working hand in hand with Sue, PAHS will be left in his capable hands and heading in an exciting new direction.

Joan began her association with PAHS in 1985 as a weekend volunteer. During that time, she became certified as an Animal Control Officer. In 2014, she decided to work part time with the animals she loves and respects, and continues to contribute to the well being of the animals in our care.

Officer Shaune Jones has been employed with PAHS since 2015. In addition to being certified as an Animal Control Officer, he is also an Animal Cruelty Investigator and a member of the N.J. Animal Control Association. Shaune has a long history working with animals including domestic and wildlife, and is happy to have a rewarding career working with animals and helping people.
