82. Katie Campbell - Saving Pets of Survivors with "RedRover"

The WHEN DATING HURTS podcast has covered many facets of the domestic violence issue. But this one is new. Abusers often have patterns of violence towards all members of a household including children and pets. It’s difficult enough for the abused to find shelter for themselves. For that reason, many survivors stay in abusive homes for fear of subjecting their pets to continued abuse if left behind. And sometimes, it’s not only abuse, it’s torture or death. RedRover, established in 1987, sought to do something to bring animals out of crisis. We will talk about the work of this wonderful organization with Katie Campbell, RedRover’s Director of Collaboration and Outreach. Contact RedRover here.
