Mental Health Awareness

According to the World Health Organization, more than 1 billion people worldwide are living with mental health disorders. The Legacy Therapy Dogs are committed to helping with this crisis. The Legacy Therapy Dogs visit with many mental health chapters throughout the quad cities. This form of animal assisted therapy uses trained animals for a wide range of people to help achieve therapeutic outcomes. Interacting with therapy dogs has been shown to produce significant decreases in depression and anxiety and can also help improve communication and social behaviors. The Legacy therapy dogs are available to visit your facility, mental health chapter, and your staff and students to offer some much needed therapy dog love.
