TWO WOMEN'S PRISON DOG PROGRAMS NEED HELP WITH SUPPLIES

Dwight Correctional Institution ~ Illinois

California Institution for Women

These women are taking responsibility for their crime and are now giving back to our society. They are helping others by training dogs to assist the handicapped. Since these programs need supplies to keep going, I am trying to find people willing to help them find the resources and the supplies needed to keep the program going.

PLEASE WILL YOU HELP THESE PROGRAMS
