Support Paws and Stripes for Veterans

Our mission is to provide animal-assisted therapy and other mental health services to military veterans and their loved ones living with service-connected trauma.

Paws and Stripes offers unique and extensive approaches that set us apart from other organizations focusing on the same or similar populations.

Paws and Stripes helps New Mexico veterans reintegrate into civilian roles and develop meaningful missions and goals within their lives as veterans. Focusing on catered mental health support, therapeutic services, and service dog training, Veterans enrolled in our programs are given the opportunity to learn life skills to create increased self-awareness in their environments and provide the insight necessary to deal with everyday civilian anxieties such as finances, career challenges, caring for children and maintaining a healthy marriage
