On May 16, SCI Pine Grove Corrections Counselor Tammy Delosh and Drug and Alcohol Treatment Specialist Christina Smith went to Indiana University of Pennsylvania for a wellness-based counseling class at the college lodge. The class was about the role of therapy dogs in counseling. Mary Jalongo did a presentation to a graduate class and had attendees (along with therapy dogs) there to give feedback in to how the dogs affect a person's ability to communicate with counselors. Dogs interacted with students at the conclusion of the presentation, and attendees participated in a question and answer time.
