Research shows reading can have a calming effect on shelter animals! Rescue Readers is a one-hour program for all readers, where participants read to the animals in our adoption centers. Readers provide soothing company to dogs, cats, and critters as they await adoption. Sessions are held at Animal Humane Society Golden Valley, Woodbury and Coon Rapids locations. Orientation sessions can be completed in-person or online. In-person orientations take place at our Golden Valley shelter. Each in-person orientation is one hour in length and includes time to read. The cost is $10 per reader. Virtual orientation sessions cost $5 per reader.
