Longview Resources

Our hearts are with everyone affected by the Nippon Dynawave Packaging facility tragedy in Longview. We continue to hold the workers, families, friends, first responders, and the entire Cowlitz County community in our thoughts.

In the wake of a tragedy, families often face unexpected challenges that extend far beyond the immediate crisis. For some, that can include concerns about caring for beloved pets during a time of grief, uncertainty, or financial hardship. The Humane Society for Southwest Washington is here to help.
