Pets and Peer Support

Kelty Dennehy Mental Health Resource Centre

You may have heard that pets are beneficial to mental health, and we are here to dive into that idea head-on at our Pet Therapy event! Come join us and a pack of PADS therapy dogs in the atrium to experience pet therapy hands-on, while learning all about the benefit of pet therapy and getting a chance to ask all of your questions.
Our peer navigator, MJ Moore will be giving a presentation on the benefit of pet therapy in peer support, which she is also presenting at the National Conference on Peer Support. MJ is a certified peer supporter, who also volunteers training PADS dogs like Juniper, who has become a familiar face at the Kelty Dennehy Mental Health Resource Centre. MJ’s work was recently featured by <A HREF="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/401a14df1a2678cd907f1d9b0/files/a101301a-729c-46a0-becb-b2f643e111d4/MJ_and_Juniper.pdf?utm_source=CMHA+External+Newsletter&utm_campaign=4dc0416b24-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_02_09&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_7ee18768f8-4dc0416b24-" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">CMHA National as a part of CMHA’s 100th Anniversary</A>.
