The Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) is offering a federal grant opportunity titled "OVC FY25 Emergency and Transitional Pet Shelter and Housing Assistance for Victims of Domestic Violence Program." This program aims to provide funding for shelters and transitional housing that accommodate victims of domestic violence along with their companion animals, including pets, service animals, emotional support animals, and horses. Given that many domestic violence shelters do not permit pets, this initiative is crucial for enabling victims to seek safety without having to abandon their animals. Interested organizations, including those with a history of effective work in domestic violence and animal welfare, can apply for grants ranging from $0 to $500,000, with applications due by August 15, 2025. For further details, applicants can contact the OJP Response Center at OJP.ResponseCenter@usdoj.gov or visit the full announcement at https://ovc.ojp.gov/funding/current-funding-opportunities.
