In the last few years, there has been a boom in the interest of non-pharmacological-based therapies to enhance people's health and well-being. These therapeutic interventions include purposeful interactions with animals. Surrounding ourselves with other living beings is beneficial for our health (HABRI, 2020).
​
The hosting organizations we cooperate with are Centers and Education Institutes developing Training and Education Programs, using companion animals to help vulnerable people: meaning Animal-Assisted Therapy; Animal-Assisted Learning and Animal-Assisted Activities.
