Past Events
The National Symposium for the Standards of Goal-Based Canine Interventions
As the use of Goal-Based Canine Interventions continues to expand, the profoundly beneficial impact of this model of support has garnered great interest and attention. As respected experts in this discipline, Crisis Response Canines (CRC), Animal Assist Canine Academy (AACA) and The Hero Academy recognize the need to establish criteria and set professional standards for this growing field.
CRC, AACA, and The Hero Academy are at the forefront of a collaborative effort, working with distinguished representatives from various organizations including assistance dog groups, airlines, schools, health systems, first responders, and other businesses. The goal is to create universally recognized standards and criteria for the official designation of a Working Crisis Canine.
