SWHAT Reading Paws:

An innovative and fun program organized in collaboration with Montreal libraries and schools. Offered throughout the year, our teams provide a relaxed, non-judgmental environment where children can practice and improve their reading skills by reading to a certified therapy听dog.

We also visit classrooms for students with special needs.
