”Violence wreaked on animals
by adults should no longer be
viewed as an isolated
incident, but a warning that humans in
the family may be a risk
or even already abused.”
A. William
Ritter, Jr., (Former Denver District Attorney)
Governor
of State of Colorado.
THE LINK
is
a team of professionals who recognize the correlation
between animal abuse,
firesetting and domestic violence and a
perpetrator’s potential
for future violence against people. The
team works together to
identify people at risk, develop intervention
strategies, open lines
of communication, share information between
affiliates and provide
professional training. We are raising awareness
on the undeniable “link”
between violence against people including
child abuse and animal
cruelty.
Our
mission is
EDUCATION,
PREVENTION, INTERVENTION, PROSECUTION, TREATMENT.
”The greatness
of a nation and its moral progress can be
judged by
the way its animals are treated.”
The
Mahatma Gandhi
Donations to THE
LINK are always appreciated

important work.
