Useful Resurce To Check Out

After years of working with other rescue groups, I am now out on my own, rescuing and fostering dogs that have been abused and/or neglected or are special needs. I am filing paperwork to become a non-profit corporation, but need to know if there are any other requirements in our state. I was told I have to be a "releasing" agency, but can find no information at the state or town levels as to what this means. Can anyone here help?
I have contacted the city/town. It was the ASPCA who gave me the info on needing to be a "releasing" agency, and yet they could not tell me how to become one. Supposedly it will release the ASPCA or other parties from liability if I take in a dog from them.

They were not much help at all as to how to become this agency, just stated that I needed it :-( (
Thanks for the info on Best Friends…I had forgotten about their program!
