Animal Assisted Intervention

Animal-Assisted Intervention (AAI) involves using trained animals, often dogs or horses, to support individuals in therapeutic or educational settings. These interventions can help improve emotional well-being, reduce stress, and enhance social interactions. AAI is commonly used in hospitals, schools, and mental health facilities, where animals provide comfort and companionship, encouraging people to engage more fully in their care or learning. The presence of animals can foster a sense of security and promote healing, making AAI a valuable tool in various therapeutic practices.
