Betty Jo MacCaughtry

Systems Administrator

After a 25-year career in health care and human resources, Betty Jo thought it was the right time to start volunteering with the Humane Society. In January of 2012, she started as a volunteer. She then completed the animal ambassador program, hoping to fulfill her lifelong dream of helping animals.

When the opportunity arose to become an employee, that goal was achieved. As an adoption counselor, she can now help find homes for those lost, abandoned, and abused animals and hopefully connect them with their “forever homes.”

Here at the Humane Society, Betty Jo charges herself to the care of all of the animals of Ventura County and the people that care for them. She helps match people with the right animal and makes sure that all animals at the shelter are accounted for. She provides rescue numbers and referrals when needed and helps intake animals that can no longer be kept by their owners. In addition to all of this, she also manages the HSVC gift shop.
