This week I talk with Sarah Hankins of the Safe Pet program with Shelby Humane in Alabama. We discuss the work they do to support people leaving domestic violence situations.

Safe Pets takes in these animals to care for them while their families get the support they need to leave and get safe. Once their families are back on their feet they are able to be reunited. Of the domestic violence shelters in Alabama, only three are able to take families with pets, highlighting the need for resources like Safe Pets. To learn more about the work they do and how you can support them visit https://www.shelbyhumane.org/safe-pet.  If you are in Alabama and can foster animals in these situations, please reach out to Sarah to learn more about the process for becoming approved. As this is a unique situation, there are strict protocols that fosters must be able to follow.
