Myth: Delta Society is an animal-organization similar to a humane society.
Truth: Delta Society is a human-services organization dedicated to improving people's health and well-being. We do this through positive interactions with animals.
Our Vision
People are healthier and happier because companion, service and therapy animals enrich and positively impact their everyday lives.
Our Mission
The mission of Delta Society is to help lead the world in advancing human health and well-being through positive interactions with animals. We help people throughout the world become healthier and happier by incorporating therapy, service and companion animals into their lives.
To achieve our mission we will:
Educate healthcare and other professionals on how to incorporate animals into goal-directed treatment or visiting animal activities to improve the lives of those they serve.
Provide 'gold standard' therapy animal curriculum and training and inspire people to volunteer with their pets in their local communities.
Empower individuals with disabilities to maximize their quality of life by providing service animal related information and resources.
Advance knowledge about research which reflects how interactions with animals have a positive effect on human lives.
