Through the USO Canine Program, the valuable connection between humans and dogs is recognized. We partner with our local LCC K9 Military Ministry for them to come in with their amazing therapy dogs. Canine companions play an important role in delivering physical, mental, and emotional support to help strengthen service members, families, and communities.
