The Co-Sheltering Collaborative's next Open House will be taking place in Cincinnati, OH on Friday, August 4 from 1 PM to 4:30 PM.

The Open House Cincinnati is co-hosted by My Dog Is My Home and Found House Interfaith Housing Network (Found House IHN) and will be held. This Open House is generously sponsored by Maddie's Fund, #ThankstoMaddie, and the Coalition on Homelessness and Housing in Ohio.

The Open House is free to attend. Please RSVP by July 24, 2023. Spaces are limited to 25 people (and 2 people per organization). Have additional questions? Email Christine@mydogismyhome.org.

This is very exciting! I am very interested in learning more about your program as it is something I have been trying to figure out how to get started. I am not currently working with an organization, and may not be by August  - who knows? I left m position with a rescue because I want to focus on how I can do more to help prevent homelessness for pets and their people alike.  So, I do not want to register and take up a spot that could be used by an existing organization better positioned to actually start their own program. Can I be on a waitlist or something? I can imagine for privacy of those you serve, you can't just hold these whenever or give tours very often. Just very excited and want to visit, but want to be respectful of others. 

Hi Vicky. Sure I can put you on the waitlist! Just go ahead and fill out the registration form anyways, and I'll put a special note by your name to reach back out to you if we have additional slots.
