OUR MISSION: Improving the quality of life for people of all ages through the therapeutic use of companion animals.

Volunteer

Strengthen HABIC through visibility and fundraising in the community. We welcome volunteers in becoming human-animal teams, in development, helping with special events, and assisting in research and other projects.

Animal-Human Teams

You and your animal share the ability to change the life of someone in need. HABIC requires that each potential volunteer team undergo a thorough screening and training process to ensure that those working with vulnerable persons are well prepared, and are able to act confidently and independently. Once you are trained and placed in a facility, a commitment of at least one year is expected. If you think you may be interested in cultivating a deeper and more meaningful human-animal bond to share with others, and are willing to make the kind of commitment necessary for HABIC work, please contact the HABIC office at 970-491-2776 or info@habic.org. An annual $25 membership donation is required.
