At the Courthouse Dogs Foundation, we believe in a justice system that embodies compassion and understanding. Our mission is to transform the experience of individuals navigating the complexities of the criminal justice system by utilizing professionally trained dogs that provide essential emotional support and unconditional love in high-stress environments. These remarkable animals have the ability to ease anxiety, offer comfort, and foster a sense of safety, ensuring that everyone—ranging from young victims to domestic violence victims and vulnerable witnesses—they get the chance to feel heard, valued, and respected in their justice journey.

Strategically, we are committed to strengthening our financial foundation to cultivate sustainable growth. We envision a future where innovation and collaboration flourish, enabling us to expand our reach and deepen our impact. Our goal is not just to maintain our programs but to enhance and elevate them, ensuring that we can touch even more lives with the healing presence of our courthouse dogs.

Every single life we impact matters. With your support and generosity, we can multiply the positive effects of our work, creating a ripple of compassion and hope throughout the justice system. Together, we can make a profound difference, one life at a time.

    These dogs are having a tremendous impact on the lives of children having to testify without a parent or guardian nearby.
