Red Rover has established a grant program which helps families with pets safely escape domestic violence together. Funding is mainly provided to help with the cost of temporary pet boarding while a client is in a domestic violence shelter, though other costs associated with boarding (like vaccinations) can be considered.
Here's an example:
When Stacey’s abusive husband began threatening her with violence, she fled with her two children and the family’s two dogs to a local domestic violence shelter. Stacey could not bear the thought of leaving behind Minnie and Angel, their two Chihuahuas, but felt hopeless when she learned the shelter was unable to house them. Luckily her shelter advocate was aware of RedRover’s Safe Escape program, and she immediately applied for help for Stacey and her family.
