We invite representatives of human and animal services to join us on March 5th for an Open House at Father Joe’s Villages in San Diego. The open house takes place the day after the National Alliance to End Homelessness Conference in San Diego–so please stay in town an extra day to join us for this unique opportunity.

Father Joe’s Villages creates pathways to safety, stability, and healing for individuals experiencing homelessness.

This event provides an opportunity to:
➡ Tour a pet-inclusive shelter,
➡ Learn about Father Joe’s co-sheltering policies and procedures,
➡ Hear from residents whose lives have been transformed by this work, and
➡ Build connections with a network of providers dedicated to co-sheltering initiatives.

Event Details:
Date: Thursday, March 5, 2026
Time: 9:30 AM - 1:30 PM
Location: Shared with confirmed RSVPs (space limited to 25 attendees, 2 per organization)

RSVP by February 27th: https://bit.ly/OpenHouseSD2026

This event is free to attend.

As more service providers explore pet-inclusive solutions, Father Joe’s has implemented small changes, including providing supplies, veterinary care, and spaces for animals to stay at Father Joe’s Villages so that San Diegans can keep their beloved pets when they lose their homes.
