6 CALGARY WOMEN’S EMERGENCY SHELTERPET FRIENDLY ROOMS: SHELTER FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
Pets can often be a significant barrier to women leaving a dangerous and abusive situation.
Victims will delay leaving or may consider returning to their partner because they fear for
the safety of their pets. Many women are unaware that there are options for keeping their
pets safe while finding safety for themselves and their children. In June 2020, two rooms
in our Emergency Shelter were transformed to accommodate small animals that arrive with
women escaping violence. Allowing pets in the Shelter helps provide emotional and healing
support for women and their children during their stay, and can be life changing in their
journey. This program honours Jasmine Lovett and Aliyah Sanderson, a mother and daughter
who lost their lives to violence.
SHELTER BEDS APP
In the Spring of 2020, we launched the Shelter Beds App
in collaboration with YW Calgary, Rowan House, Wheatland
Shelter and Awo Taan Healing Lodge Society. This Shelter
NEW Beds App is a useful tool which allows local emergency
INITIATIVES shelters to share information on vacancies with each other
and keep room availability up-to-date, creating a smoother
process for women seeking shelter. This app has been very
successfully utilized and is being piloted shortly in some
other communities in Alberta. The vision is for this app to
be deployed across the province to assist the larger shelter
