This year we were excited to feature author, speaker, and researcher Andrew Campbell, an inspiring advocate who has raised awareness around the nation and the world about family violence, which is the interrelationships among child maltreatment, domestic violence, and animal abuse.  Learn more about Andrew’s new book below.

Like family, pets provide us unconditional love and support during our most vulnerable moments, asking for nothing in return. Yet pets are rarely included in family violence prevention, detection, or intervention initiatives. Victims of abuse often choose to remain in the abusive home if no safe place of refuge exists for their animals. Protection of their pets often comes at a perilous price.

Author Andrew Campbell survived his own familial abuse in great part due to the support and unconditional love of his own pet. His compelling personal story inspired his groundbreaking research about the role that pets play in protecting victims of family violence. Campbell shares how when pets are included in family violence prevention plans, we can better provide support at the very time the victims need it most. Available here: https://a.co/d/b3t2oO9

The breakfast was free! There was an ask for donations to support our work at the end of the event.
