Consequences of America's Affordable Housing Crisis on People, Pets, and Animal Shelters

Nov 18, 2024, 12pm EST

This seminar is part of the Animal Matters Seminar Series presented by Tufts Center for Animals and Public Policy.

Housing insecurity for tenants has increased in severity in the last several years as rents have skyrocketed and eviction rates have, in many cities, climbed higher than even pre-pandemic levels, according to a 2024 Harvard study. Today, more renters than ever are experiencing at least moderate rent burden as unaffordability in the rental market hit an all-time high in 2022.  Housing insecurity directly impacts peoples' ability to acquire and keep pets for life. There is a small, but growing body of research to better understand the impact of rental housing conditions on pets, pet owners, and animal shelters in the U.S. and how this issue relates to broader affordable housing and tenants’ rights social justice advocacy.

This presentation will share the results of three research projects, co-authored by our guest speaker Lauren Loney, a licensed attorney, researcher, and advocate crafting policies and lobbying on a variety of issues at local, state, and federal levels. Her talk will address the impact of restrictive pet policies in rental housing on pets, animal shelters, and the tenants who love them. Join us to learn about trends in pet relinquishment due to housing issues and several programmatic tools that may be most useful to mitigate the flow of these pets into animal shelters.

B3: The Real Information Environment

The workshop is an opportunity to consider the implications for university-based Web sites of the use of external, embeddable commercial services. As embeddable services and communities increasingly dominate, Web sites are evolving into Web presences, with implications for marketing, functionality and evaluation. We will look at some examples from Higher Education Academy Subject Centres' use of services such as YouTube, Google Books and PBwiki, consider some risks and benefits and invite participants to share their own attitudes towards these services, whether pro or con. The session was facilitated by Dr Martin L Poulter, University of Bristol and Kwansuree Jiamton, King's College London.

A8: Mind Mapping for Effective Content Management

In 2007 the University of St Andrews Web Team (of two) was faced with the daunting task of managing the migration of 4,000+ Web pages from 35 individual Web sites into one new Web site within a content management system. Having explored various methods we settled on using mind maps to successfully the complete the task within 4 months. In this workshop we will begin with an overview of mind mapping before sharing what we did and looking at how you can use this tool to efficiently organise and manage your own content. The session was facilitated by Stephen Evans and Gareth Saunders, St Andrews.

A3: Coping with Forms: Implementing a Web Form Management Application

Creating good forms is a tricky business encompassing a wide range of disciples (accessibility, usability, security, etc). What's more, the development of bespoke online forms, and their back-end reporting interfaces, can be a huge resource drain for institutional Web teams. This session will tackle these problems by asking 'what do we need to know to make better forms, and how can we better manage form development processes'? As a case study, we will look at how the implementation of a form building and management application has aided the Web team at City University. The session was facilitated by Dan Jackson, City University.
