What is a Justice Facility Dog?

A Justice Facility Dog is a specially trained canine that provides comfort and support to individuals involved in legal proceedings, particularly children and vulnerable witnesses.

These dogs are trained to remain calm and comforting in stressful environments, such as courtrooms or during interviews, helping to ease anxiety and provide emotional support.

Justice Facility Dogs play a crucial role in helping people, especially children, navigate the often intimidating justice system.
