Our member teams visit with people in hospitals, nursing homes and other facilities. Handlers with additional volunteer training participate in hospice programs providing end-of-life comfort, while others visit in schools and children's facilities, participating in reading and educational programs.

TOJ welcomes members who are registered with a nationally recognized animal therapy organization and those who are in training to become registered teams.
