For members who were unable to attend the meeting, Val Pena explained the following about the program:

Safe havens are sheltering services available in an area that help individuals experiencing domestic violence place their companion animals out of harm’s way so that they may seek safety for themselves as well as their animals.

The Safe Havens Mapping Project was established by the Animal Welfare Institute in 2011 to create a national directory to help people find these facilities.
