Curious about the operations of a pet-inclusive domestic violence shelter? 

Join us for an in-person Open House, hosted by My Dog Is My Home, on Friday, November 17 in New York City from 10:00 AM to 1:30 PM. This open house is made possible by the generous support of Maddie's Fund, #ThanksToMaddie and the Mayor's Office to End Domestic and Gender-Based Violence. Attendees will have the opportunity to tour Urban Resource Institute's pet-inclusive domestic violence shelter, hear about their policies and procedures, and listen to PALS program participants, all with the goal of building a regional network of providers that can support each other through the various phases of co-sheltering. 

The open house is free to attend and the RSVP deadline is November 8th. Please note that we will be limiting RSVPs to 20 people (and 2 people per organization) due to the intimate nature of the event. RSVP HERE and feel free to reach out at any time with questions.
