Placer County

Congratulations to the dedicated staff and volunteers of #PlacerCounty Animal Services on the 10th anniversary of the Animal Services Center.

Over the past decade, your compassion, professionalism and commitment have helped thousands of animals find safety, care and second chances. From daily shelter operations and adoptions to emergency response during wildfires and disasters, your work has made a lasting impact on animals, families and communities throughout Placer County.

Thank you for all you do and for making the center's first 10 years such a success. Here's to the next decade of service, partnership and lifesaving work. 🐾

In honor of Veterans Day, Placer County’s Human Resources Department once again partnered with Sacramento Blue Star Moms to host an annual countywide donation drive, collecting toiletries, snacks and other treats for care packages sent to U.S. service members deployed across the country and around the world.

This year, 20 donation boxes were set up at participating county facilities, giving employees and members of the public an opportunity to show their support for those serving in all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces. Our partners at Sacramento Blue Star Moms will package and distribute the items, bringing a little extra comfort and cheer to service members spending the holidays away from home.

We are grateful to everyone who participated and helped make this year's drive a success. Thank you for helping us show our appreciation for those who serve!

A new results update for the November 3, 2026 General Election has been posted to the Placer County Elections website - visit placercountyelections.gov/election-resul… to see the latest numbers.

As we observe Veterans Day this Wednesday, please join us in thanking and honoring our many employees and their family members who have served our nation in the armed forces. If you or someone close to you is a current or former service member, please feel free to share their photo and story in the comments below so we can honor as many of our veteran community members as possible.
