Sponsored by the Kenneth Slade Memorial Fund at Parkinson’s Resource Organization & Phyllis Slade.
Founded in 1975, Canine Companions for Independence® is a non-profit organization that enhances the lives of people with disabilities by providing highly-trained assistance dogs and ongoing support at no cost to the recipients.
The assistance dogs we breed, raise and train aren’t just the ears, hands and legs of their human partners. They’re also goodwill ambassadors and often, their best friends. They open up new opportunities and new possibilities and spread incredible joy. We unite people with dogs in a powerful program that leads to greater independence and confidence.
Trained in over 40 commands, Canine Companions® assistance dogs are able to do jobs like open doors, pick up dropped items, turn on lights, and much, much more! Learn more about Canine Companions for Independence at cci.org. Give Independence – and Give a Dog a Job!
