Shelter to Soldier has developed a unique psychiatric service dog training program to provide veterans with an alternative method of coping with trauma and MST. According to the U.S. Dept. of Veterans Affairs, an average of 17 US veterans and one active-duty military personal commit suicide every single day. More than 500,000 servicemen and women are living with invisible wounds, often including Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS) and 320,000 are experiencing debilitating brain trauma (ref: Wounded Warrior Project). Shelter to Soldier has answered the call to help veterans in need through their independent, non-profit program, funded solely by private/corporate donations and grants.
