Duval Charter School at Mandarin Helps Nemours

Duval Charter School at Mandarin is fundraising for the Assisted Dog and Pony Therapy (ADAPT) at Nemours Children’s Specialty Care in Jacksonville. ADAPT is a first-of-its kind model to incorporate canines (dogs) and equines (ponies) into clinical, therapeutic treatment planning for Nemours patients. Through a partnership with local experts at the University of North Florida Brooks College of Health, Nemours will implement an ADAPT program to benefit today’s patients and conduct large-scale studies that contribute to research for the benefit of people, and animals, everywhere. Learn more about this new program and its innovative research studies here.
