STILLWATER, MN — On Thursday, the Washington County Sheriff’s Office-Jail Division debuted a new program designed to reduce stress and enhance the emotional wellness of both inmates and employees alike. The “Therapy Dog Program” at the Washington County Jail was implemented by Sheriff Dan Starry, with the help of Home for Life, a non-profit animal rescue sanctuary based in Star Prairie, Wisconsin. Sheriff Starry’s decision to bring therapy dogs on board was easy: "Our goal is to have inmates leave our facility better off mentally, physical and spiritually than when they came in. A high percentage of inmates will be released back into the community we serve. We want to find ways to help transition inmates into successful citizens, parents and workers. We believe creating this connection of caring helps. It’s the right thing to do." Read More. |
