What Is AAA and AAT?
Delta Society® is an international, non-profit organization that unites people who have mental and physical disabilities who are in healthcare facilities with professionally trained animals to help improve their health. The Delta Society Pet Partners program trains volunteers and screens pets for participation in animal visiting and therapy programs in hospitals, nursing homes, rehabilitation center and schools. Animal-Assisted Activities (AAA) provides social, motivational, educational, and/or recreational benefits for people during interactions. AAA often occurs in meet-and-greet sessions in a variety of settings and can be administered in groups or with individuals. The purpose of this type of visit is to share our certified pets with people in need, in a non-structured way.
