CAI/CIT  Teams

A Canine Intervention Dog is trained to provide affection, comfort and support to people, often in settings such as hospitals, retirement homes, nursing homes, schools, libraries, hospices, or disaster areas.
A Critical Incident and Trauma Dog is the same as a CAI dog except they specialize in PTSD response. These dogs are used in locations like police stations and courtrooms to support those who have witnessed something quite traumatic. 

Our teams are making a difference.

• Groot, a CIT Support Dog, and Jack, a CAI Support Dog, currently provide weekly support at Veteran’s Memorial Lodge, Broadmead.
• We are working with schools, veterans’ organizations, and community groups to expand programs that address trauma, promote wellness, and educate the public on the critical roles service dogs play.
