You and your animal share the ability to improve the life of someone in need.
Volunteering with Human-Animal Bond in Colorado
The first step to becoming a HABIC volunteer team is to attend an information session. HABIC information sessions are held four times per year. Attendance is required to become a HABIC volunteer.
We strongly recommend that dogs and handlers have participated in at least one group training class prior to refining their skills at HABIC training. Contact us for a list of recommended training facilities in the community.
