Survivors Aren't Just Human
At Growing Ground, we understand that safety and security extend to all members of the family, including our beloved pets. This page is dedicated to animal lovers and women who have experienced abuse, offering a message of hope and highlighting the importance of keeping pets welcome and safe.
A safe haven for all
Pets often provide unconditional love and support, becoming integral parts of our healing process. Knowing they are safe can be a tremendous source of comfort for women escaping abusive situations. We champion environments where pets are welcome and safe, reinforcing the bond between humans and animals in times of need.

If you're looking to help, there are many ways to offer support. Consider donating to local animal shelters or organizations that assist women with pets in escaping abusive homes. Volunteering your time or providing foster care for animals can also make a significant difference in creating a safer community for both women and their pets.
