Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

At Pasado’s Safe Haven, we believe compassionate action is fundamental to dismantling systems of oppression for all living beings. 

We courageously live this belief every day through our work to end animal cruelty and our commitment to respect and kindness.  

We can only be successful by embracing the diversity and power of each individual's lived experience as we all work together toward an expanded circle of compassion.

Honoring the Lands We Occupy

Pasado's Safe Haven is on the lands of the Cayuse, Umatilla and Walla Walla territories. Our sanctuary exists on the lands of the Tulalip, Snohomish, and Skykomish people. 
 
Since time immemorial, these traditional owners have cared for these lands and the animals who call it home. Pasado's acknowledges that our home always was and always will be Native land. We support Indigenous sovereignty and their right to self-determination and honor their sacred connection to the land and water. 
 
As we grow and unlearn, we will be honest about our mistakes and do our part in cultivating a future that honors Indigenous sovereignty, stories, and voices, to form a more just and equitable society.
