Today, we kicked off the Worcester County Comfort Dog Collaborative, a COSSUP grant-funded initiative expanding access to comfort dogs for police departments across Worcester County.
These dogs provide an important resource for individuals experiencing trauma or crisis, offering comfort and support when it's needed most.
Thank you to all of our participating police departments, including those who joined us today, for being part of this important effort!
