Delivering Community Outreach Through Animal-Assisted Therapy
At Furry Friends, we bring the benefits of animal-assisted therapy directly into the community. Our trained therapy animals, guided by experienced handlers, visit local centers, groups, and events to provide emotional support, promote social interaction, and create engaging, hands-on experiences for people of all ages. Each outreach program is carefully tailored to meet the needs of the participants, fostering confidence, empathy, and a sense of connection while making wellness and learning fun, accessible, and inclusive.
