MHQ selected My Dog is My Home as our 2024 Community Partner. In addition to supporting the organization by donating a percentage of MHQ’s revenue in honor of our clients, we share information about the organization each month, and provide in-kind consulting services.
My Dog Is My Home is a national nonprofit dedicated to expanding access to shelter for people experiencing homelessness and their companion animals, and they have had a busy summer! On August 8th, they’ll be holding their second annual Open House in Cincinnati where they invite local providers of homeless services an opportunity to tour a pet-inclusive day shelter. The purpose of the Open House is to encourage other local homeless services providers to adopt and adapt these practices in their own organizations.
Just a few days later, My Dog is My Home will be holding their last 10-Year Anniversary Celebration in partnership with Found House IHN’s Pet Support Program in Cincinnati. This afternoon event revives pieces from My Dog Is My Home’s original art exhibition and revolves around the live storytelling by people with lived experience of homelessness with a companion animal. In September, they will be in Cleveland to table at and bring programming to the International Association of Veterinary Social Work Summit. Outside of the special summer programming, My Dog is My Home continues their work supporting shelter and housing organizations with implementing pet-inclusive policies. Two pilots that will have been launched this year: 1 domestic violence sheltering organization in New York City and 1 emergency shelter for single adults in Boston.
