This week, specially trained Hope Animal-Assisted Crisis Response (HOPE AACR) dog and handler teams visited Red Cross workers as well as residents in multiple shelters across Eastern Kentucky.

Dae Grodin, a volunteer with HOPE AACR and her dog Tovah have been together for 14 years. They have been an HOPE AACR team for 8 years deploying in crisis response to disasters like recent flooding in Eastern Kentucky. This was a special visit for Dae and Tovah, as Dae rescued Tovah in Pike County located in Eastern Kentucky. Read more: https://rdcrss.org/3BYOmir

We are proud to partner with HOPE AACR and we appreciate their work in Kentucky.
