ATTENTION: Business, Medical/Psychology and all students!
Talerie Brown is starting a non-profit business, Companion Animal Partners, which will train service dogs for the disabled. She has opportunities for students to help with this process. She would like business students to help with the business-oriented tasks, but would also like medical/psychology students to help since service dogs benefit the disabled physically and mentally, and anyone else who would be interested in helping.
