EPIC Pals Summer/Fall 2014 Update

EPIC Pals SummerFall 2014 Update Four youth participants and four dogs graduated from the summer session of EPIC Pals on August 14th.

All the dogs going through the class had found their forever homes by the end of the program. Our third session of EPIC Pals started in October at the Girardot Center. We are serving six young people and six dogs this session. We would like to thank all those who continue to help make EPIC Pals successful. This program would not be possible without your commitment and dedication to helping young people and dogs in our community.
