Facility Dogs Assisting at Barnahus and similar setups

Facility Dogs Assisting at Barnahus and similar setups

Children are naturally drawn to animals, and child-friendly services which use facility dogs report that the comfort they provide often leads to better results for children. From bonding in the lobby to accompanying the child throughout the facility, children are less stressed and have a non-human to tell their story.

Watch this webinar to hear from Courthouse Dogs Foundation founders Ellen O’Neill-Stephens and Celeste Walsen about:

About the webinar series

 

It is often the case that, due to limited space and resources, only select professionals from around Europe are able to participate at the PROMISE project exchange meetings. These meetings feature lectures, trainings and discussions on the key principles, standards, and challenges to consider when opening and operating a multi-disciplinary and interagency collaboration for child victims and witnesses of violence.

 

The PROMISE webinars revisit and expand on topics covered in these exclusive meetings, and the recordings are available to support the dynamic needs and interests of Barnahus stakeholders globally. 

The webinars all held in English. 

The webinars are co-organised with Terre des Hommes as part of the Child Protection Hub’s webinar series.
