The Humane Society of Broward County firmly believes that animals have positive impacts on the lives of humans. It is this belief that has led to the inception of the AAT Program. Animal Assisted Therapy offers enormous benefits to people and ensures that they will live richer and fuller lives by just being a part of this program.
In an effort to stay connected with our community, provide comfort and support, our volunteers and their therapy animals are able to offer both in-person visits and virtually connect with your patients, residents, clients, and staff.
There is no cost for this program but donations are always appreciated.
The first step is to fill out the Facility Request Form which will advise us of your interest and provide the additional information we need to get your facility registered and set up for our program. After the form has been received, a member of our staff will be in touch with you to coordinate the therapy visiting schedule.
The process of coordinating the matching of AAT volunteers to a facility may take some time. We ask that you be patient during this time. Once we have a volunteer team available your facility will be notified.
Please note that we are currently only able to serve facilities in Broward and south Palm Beach County.
Our list of facilities served is currently at capacity. You may fill out a facility request form and it will be added to a waitlist. Once we are able to place teams at new facilities you will be notified.
