Goal Oriented Animal Assisted Teaching

In the growing field of Animal Assisted Interventions, we know that the human-animal connection provides a wide range of health, social, and emotional benefits. Animals can help alleviate anxiety, reduce depression, provide social support, companionship, and purpose.  When thoughtfully introduced into the educational setting and intentionally integrated into the learning process, animals can provide a powerful impact on positive mental health outcomes by offering a motivating and safe presence for students to engage in more academically challenging activities that they struggle with in a traditional educational environment. Through GOAAT Educational Services, we design educational experiences incorporating our animals into the activities creating a unique experience for the learner.

These are some of our animal partners that work with us during activities making learning more fun!!
