The Samaritan Inn had the honor of co-hosting the Housing People & Pets in Crisis Workshop alongside RedRover and Greater Good Charities! 🐾💙
A very special thank you to Katie with RedRover and Gabbie with Greater Good Charities for joining us in Plano and leading such an informative and meaningful day. We are so grateful for the knowledge, resources, and experience they shared with everyone in attendance!
The workshop brought together professionals from animal welfare, housing and homelessness services, victim advocacy, law enforcement, veterinary care, and other community organizations to learn, connect, and discuss how we can better support people and their pets during times of crisis.
For The Samaritan Inn, these conversations are especially meaningful. Through Cooper’s Corner, our on-site pet kennel, we see firsthand how important the human-animal bond can be for individuals and families experiencing homelessness. Workshops like this help us continue learning while also building relationships with organizations throughout our community that share a commitment to supporting people and their pets.
Thank you to everyone who attended, participated in the conversations, shared resources, and helped make the day such a success. We received wonderful feedback and are excited to keep the momentum going by continuing to grow these connections and partnerships!
And once again, thank you to Katie, Gabbie, RedRover, and Greater Good Charities for helping make this incredible day possible. We hope to welcome you back again in the future! 🐶🐱❤️
