dc.description.abstractThis report details findings from quantitative and qualitative research among human service and animal welfare providers that indicates that concern for the safety of companion animals and livestock is a barrier to individuals leaving situations of interpersonal violence and abuse in urban and rural areas of Saskatchewan. Participants discussed a noticeable gap in the lack of awareness regarding current resources, services, and programs within the community that are available in these situations. In addition to raising awareness and establishing partnerships between animal welfare agencies and human service organizations, participants suggested developing and implementing more program options that offer financially realistic and appropriate resources. The report concludes with recommendations to be included in an action plan.en_US
