“This program is invaluable and has literally changed my life,” expresses Ellen Morrow, a People-Animal Connection Volunteer. “I know that sounds corny, but I’ve seen miracles. I started volunteering in 2006 and it’s such a gift and a privilege to bring my dogs in. Once per month we even have a pet visit station where everyone can come see the dogs in addition to our regular volunteer visits. There is so much love for this program at UCLA Health. People tell me, ‘You made my day,’ and they don’t mean me, they mean my dog.”
