Sixty-six percent of homes have a pet and up to 65% of women will delay going to a shelter because of concerns about their pets. Sheltering Animals & Families Together (SAF-T) is a global initiative working around the world to create onsite pet housing programs at domestic violence shelters. When domestic violence survivors can find safe housing with their companion animals, it eliminates a barrier to safety.
