Mission Statement
Shelter to Soldier is a California 501c3 nonprofit organization that adopts dogs from local shelters and rescue organizations and trains them to become psychiatric service dogs for post-9/11 veterans suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), and Military Sexual Trauma (MST). The program also places emotional support animals (ESAs) with active-duty military, veterans, first responders and Gold Star Families. The Shelter to Soldier Canine Ambassadors, a team of certified therapy dogs and their volunteer handlers, also provide no-cost visits of love and comfort to local military, veterans, and their families through community engagement.
