Healing Paws (organization)

Healing Paws is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting military veterans and their families by providing trained therapy animals, mainly dogs, to offer emotional comfort and companionship. They focus on pairing service animals with individuals facing mental health challenges such as PTSD, depression, or anxiety, helping improve their well-being and quality of life. The organization also offers training and resources to ensure the animals are effective and well-adjusted. By facilitating these bonds, Healing Paws aims to promote healing, resilience, and recovery through the therapeutic presence of trained animals.
