Approved dog-and-handler teams
Dogs and their guardians are integral to Safe Humane Chicago programs. They give participants an opportunity to connect with an animal in a positive, safe environment.
We need these dog-and-handler teams to work with incarcerated juveniles between the ages of 13 and 18. They should be comfortable in new environments and around new people and know basic skills. They will be evaluated for appropriateness for the program.

Description
Through our programs, SHC has become a leading resource for education and training about the benefits of the human-animal bond, and we have made a significant impact in Chicago and elsewhere by partnering with other organizations that recognize the power of that bond. Since our first pilot programs, we have engaged hundreds of volunteers and other community members to offer resources to make our communities safer and more humane. We now have four key programs:
- Lifetime Bonds
- Youth Leaders
- Collaborative Justice
- Community Outreach
