Pet Therapy! with Julie Wade

April 10--The Mission of Pet Therapy:  Julie Wade, with the assistance of her therapy dog, Jake, will describe their 7 years of therapy work at our local hospitals and nursing homes.  Therapy animals have been used to help individuals with disabilities such as  physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual, and other conditions.  We’ll talk about some of the groups that animal therapy helps (autistic individuals, the elderly, veterans, etc.)  and provide some personal experiences that have made this 7 years a very rewarding mission for both Jake and Julie.  Come join us, and get some “free” therapy from Jake!
