OC Animal Allies PAWS volunteers are honored to help the Orange County Communities we proudly serve. Our award winning Canine Literacy Program has regular schedules to many Public Libraries within Orange County and is open to the public!
Our Canine Literacy Teams are available to visit with you and your children at selected Public Libraries in Orange County. In this public program, your child will have an opportunity to meet with and read to one of our specially trained “Canine Listeners”, helping to improve reading confidence and skills. This program is provided at no charge and tail wags and gentle kisses included at no additional cost!
Please see our Library Schedule below for locations and times. Some locations do take reservations for a turn to read with the dogs. Please call the library in advance to confirm schedules and availability.
For more information on our Canine Literacy program, please email us at info@ocanimalallies.org.
