Mission Statement
The mission of Courthouse Dogs Foundation is to promote justice with compassion through the use of professionally trained facility dogs to provide emotional support to everyone in the justice system. Most of these dogs are utilized to support children who have been victims of abuse, helping them feel safe enough to talk with a detective or testify in court. A courthouse facility dog is a professionally trained dog that is placed with a legal professional for the purpose of providing support to individuals in the criminal justice system.
Description
As an independent nonprofit organization, we strive to accomplish our mission by
- Educating members of the public and legal professionals about the benefits of facility dogs
- Guiding governmental agencies (prosecutor offices and law enforcement agencies) and nonprofit organizations (child advocacy centers and victim advocacy groups) in program development using a best practices model
- Supporting nonprofit service dog organizations that train and place facility dogs
- Encouraging and facilitating scientific research on the use of facility dogs
