Service dogs bring freedom, physical autonomy, and relief from social isolation to their human partners who are deaf or have a disability. Thanks to NEADS, more than 96 dogs have been placed with Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans. NEADS offers facility-based education, a training method whereby deaf and disabled clients develop a strong working relationship with their assistance dog by living and training in a home-like environment on campus, while under the supervision of expert training staff.
