PawPADS Youth Service Project


Youth Enrichment, K-12 Evening & Weekend / Middle School Activities & Trips -
Enrichment Fall/Winter 2024-2025

**note the date of this project has moved to Friday, Sept 20.

Back by popular demand. Have a love for animals and want to make a difference? Spend a few hours getting your hands a little dirty and maybe receive a few licks along the way. Lakeville Area Community Education offers a special Youth Service Project each season during the school year. Our spring session will give all ISD194 middle school students a very unique opportunity to help out at Pawsitive Perspectives Assistance Dogs (PawPADs), a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization headquartered in Lakeville. The mission of PawPADS is to “enrich the lives of people with disabilities by providing them with exceptionally skilled assistance dogs....” PawPAD’s primary focus is on training service dogs for people with physical mobility disabilities. Their dogs can also be trained as Diabetic Alert dogs (trained for detecting changes in blood sugar levels), Autism Support Dogs, Home Help-mate Dogs, and Facility/Animal Assisted Therapy dogs on a case-by-case basis. Volunteers will be helping with many tasks which will help this amazing organization operate throughout the year. Transportation to and from MMS will be provided. If you have a middle schooler who attends CMS or KTMS, they can take the activity bus over to MMS, otherwise please drop your child off at 2:45 pm am and pick up your child at MMS at 6:00 pm.
