Description

Expected outcomes
The expected outcomes of this project are creating access to emergency shelter for survivors and their pets that can keep them together. In this way, survivors with pets will have access to comprehensive trauma-informed services needed to rebuild their lives after crisis and achieve safe and stable housing. This project will also support delivery of other services to pets as needed, and a deepening of our partnership with the western montana humane society that will lead to better training for ywca missoula staff and community stakeholders. By providing these services at the domestic violence shelter in the meadowlark, we are addressing a GAP in services by offering support services in a manner that allows survivors with pets to flee domestic violence and enter safe shelter. Service area: the wide swath of our service area covers more than 7,000 square miles and encompasses urban, rural, tribal and frontier communities. Our service area includes missoula, mineral, granite, and portions of lake, ravalli, and glacier counties. Both the flathead and the blackfeet indian reservations are also located within our service area.
Intended beneficiaries
Project beneficiaries include survivors of domestic and sexual violence and their companion animals from within our service area. This population is largely comprised of low-income women and their children. The bipoc community is over-represented in this population. This population also faces additional barriers due to a severe lack of affordable housing, and high rates of poverty and crime.
