FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Crestview Employee Earns National Recognition for Animal Welfare by Shae Bonifacio, Public Information Officer
Crestview, FL – We are proud to share that one of our employees has received the Trailblazer in Animal Welfare Award from Humane World for Animals. The award was presented to Katie Healey, Crestview Animal Services Supervisor. This national recognition shows Healey’s leadership in animal welfare and the city’s ongoing commitment to building a safe, caring, and compassionate community.
The Trailblazer in Animal Welfare Award is presented to individuals working or volunteering in animal welfare who exemplify leadership, innovation, and commitment to advancing diversity in the field.
Healey’s recognition shines a spotlight on Crestview’s efforts to make animal care more accessible and equitable for our community. Her dedication and innovative approach reflect the city’s values and inspire communities throughout the county. As part of this award, Healey attended the Animal Care Expo in Pittsburgh, PA, last month with all expenses covered. The complete list of 2026 Trailblazer Honorees can be viewed at humanepro.org/expo/trailblazers.
“I’m committed to reshaping animal welfare by expanding access to care and challenging systems that exclude rural and underrepresented communities,” said Healey.
At the Crestview City Council Meeting on May 11, the council approved an interlocal agreement to provide temporary emergency animal control services to the City of Laurel Hill on an as-needed basis. Last year, 355 animals found homes through our local shelter. This past March, we held our first 5K Lucky Dog Dash, with 125 participants, and raised $3,400 to support animal care in our area.
To stay up to date with all that our amazing staff is doing at Crestview Animal Services, follow their page at Crestview Animal Services.
