From Barrier to Benefit: Overcoming Challenges of Creating Pet-Friendly Domestic Violence Shelters

When a domestic violence shelter becomes pet-friendly, it not only removes a significant barrier for survivors seeking safety, it also provides an additional tool to promote healing and build morale. In this dynamic discussion, you’ll learn how to overcome barriers to creating an onsite pet housing program, including: space limitations, staff and board buy-in, and funding. We’ll focus on the power of building partnerships and how you can turn your pet housing program into a fundraising tool. This interactive workshop will get attendees engaged and leave them energized and ready to take on the next steps to becoming pet-friendly! Presented by Katie Campbell of RedRover
