Psychiatric Service Dogs for High School Students

Joanne's been corresponding with a Connecticut high school student who has been training a psychiatric service dog for her own use. The dog is working well in public and is trained to do specific things to help with the young woman's disability. She sounds like she might be better trained than me.  Now she's approaching the hurdle of getting the school to accept her dog's presence in the classroom.

Maeve is a psychiatric service dog for Joanne Shortell and mental health advocate for all people with psychiatric disabilities. Maeve's goal is to become the Johnny Appleseed of emotional support animals and psychiatric service dogs.
