Support animals provide therapeutic benefit
to a person with a mental or psychiatric
disability. Support animals have been shown
to be highly effective at mitigating the
symptoms of disabilities such as PTSD and
depression. Assistance animals require no special training as it is often simply the presence of the animal that provides the benefit to the person with a disability. By Fair Housing Assistance Animals
Comfort animals can be a wide variety of animals (as opposed to “service animals” which are
only dogs and miniature horses). Service animals provide a service such as leading a person who
is blind, pulling a wheelchair, retrieving items, etc. Comfort animals, also known as assistance
animals, therapy animals, emotional support animals, and other names, are any one of a number of animals which do not do anything, but by their presence and association with a person help that person with issues such as anxiety, depression, and etc. by The BYU-Idaho Disability Services Office
The Club is looking forward to expanding services for all!
