Team Micah at the 2007 Buddy Walk

CCI's very active and enthusiastic supporters and volunteers in Colorado led us to establish the Colorado Springs office in 1992. From this local office, CCI helps individuals with disabilities apply for and enter into Team Training with a Canine Companion. After the human-canine graduate team is established, we help them maintain the greatest level of independence possible by providing ongoing communication and support. We also coordinate the Colorado Puppy Raising Program, ensuring our ability to provide the highest quality assistance dogs to our participants.
