Pets And Emotional SupportIt’s no secret that pets offer emotional support, comfort, and joy to their owners.
Pets in general can be a person’s best friend, and many of us can’t imagine life without our faithful, four-legged companions.
But not all pets are emotional support animals.
So what is an emotional support animal?
Homelessness is a complex issue. There is no one-size-fits-all solution. This is because the cause of homelessness is different for different people.
For some individuals, homelessness is mainly the result of uncontrollable circumstances. The perfect storm of financial troubles can leave anyone reeling, and it can take years to recover from. These people may simply need financial help.
Abuse in relationships, also known as intimate partner violence (IPV), is far more common than most people think. If abuse is defined as sexual violence, physical violence, or stalking, then statistics from the Center For Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that 1 in 4 women and 1 in 10 men in the U.S. have been victims of IPV.
However, abuse is more than just physical; it’s psychological. IPV also includes non-physical violence such as threats, manipulation, verbal abuse, or other forms of communication that cause mental or emotional harm to a partner. In the U.S. alone, 43 million women and 38 million men have experienced psychological violence in abusive relationships.
Unfortunately, abusive relationships are closely linked with homelessness. According to best estimates, more than 80% of homeless women with children are fleeing an abusive relationship, and abuse is the direct cause of homelessness for somewhere between 22 and 57% of women.
On top of this, 38% of IPV victims experience homelessness at some point in their lives.

All around the world, Las Vegas is famous for being a vibrant, larger-than-life city where anything is possible. Drawn by the allure of quick profit and a good time, millions of tourists arrive each year to gamble, explore the nightlife, and soak in the sights.
But beneath the veneer of glamor, there’s a dark side to this iconic destination. Homelessness runs rampant in Las Vegas, and the scale of the issue currently outweighs the resources for help. It’s easy to view the eradication of homelessness as an impossible task.
Animal abuse refers to the intentional or unintentional harming of animals through physical violence, neglect, or improper care. It occurs when farm animals are housed in disgusting environments, when dogs are forced to fight each other for sport, or when an owner lashes out at their cat.
