A Community Partner Program. For kids 6-12 years. Registration required.

PAWS 4 Reading is a program that allows children to read aloud to a therapy dog to improve reading and communication skills. Children will read individually to a trained therapy dog (and her St. John Ambulance handler) where they can feel comfortable, confident — and have fun! After all, a dog will not correct a child or make them feel awkward if they stumble.  Spend 20 minutes reading to a trained therapy dog! 

Ages 6 -12
