Animal Abuse and Family Violence
Recognizing the link between animal abuse and family violence, Sojourner Family Peace Center and the Wisconsin Humane Society have joined together to offer the Safe Haven Foster Program. Safe Haven provides temporary shelter for pets of domestic violence victims, making it possible for victims to leave a dangerous situation knowing their animal is safe.Safe Haven offers up to 60 days of shelter for animals of domestic violence victims. Many victims are hesitant to leave a dangerous situation because they fear for their animal’s safety, and this program makes it possible for victims to leave a dangerous situation without losing their companion animal. Click here to see the WISN12 report on the Safe Haven program.
If you know of a family or animal in danger, contact us at (414) 933-2722. For more information or to volunteer as a Safe Haven foster parent, call the Wisconsin Humane Society at (414) 264-6257.Spread the word! Share this poster with friends, family and local businesses!
