We attended the crash reenactment, then stayed at the school until 2:30 supporting students. At 3:45 we arrived at the Hampton Inn Hotel for the evening dinner and retreat. Several speakers talked to the students about the consequences and punishment for driving under the influence or distracted driving that causes an accident. Afterwards the students wrote their letters to their parents which is always emotional. The evening ended around 10pm. The next morning we arrived at 9:30 for the assembly. I have participated in several E15 programs and usually the assembly involves the dogs with the students and families of the participants. This time we were asked to stage in the bleachers. After the video was played we were asked for a dog to go outside to work with TIP volunteers with students affected by the reenactment video. Soon I was asked to come outside with Star due to the number of students that left the assembly emotionally touched due to their own experiences. After the assembly was over we were asked for a dog back inside to assist some students. Soon both dogs were inside to work with students. We attended the lunch for families and student participants and left around 12:30. |

| Description: We were asked to attend the Currie Middle School Mental Health Awareness Fair. Our role was to comfort students and staff at the fair. This was the schools first fair and the first exposure to Crisis Comfort dogs. Since there was only 2 teams, and no team leader, we were left to deal with all the very exuberant middle school children. There were two lunch shifts. During the first lunch shift, Henry and Bagel were swarmed by students. I asked the school staff to help with organizing the students so the dogs would not become overwhelmed or injured. One staff member made attempt to help but it was clear she didn't understand what the issue was. I could see Henry was not having a good day and was becoming stressed. After the first lunch shift, I took him to the car to rest. During the second lunch shift, I took the role of team leader for Grace and Bagel. Bagel did a great job of handling the second lunch shift. With me running interference for Grace and Bagel, it was a lot easier for Grace and Bagel to handle the students. After the second lunch shift, we left. |

CGC |
| Description: We were asked by the OCFA Division Commander to visit with the OCFA dispatchers after a couple of weeks of tough calls. We arrived at about 5:45 pm. While waiting in the parking lot for our POC to arrive, we took some pictures of the teams at the gorgeous bronze statute honoring the firefighters. When our POC arrived, he thought it was hilarious with us trying to get the 5 dogs to stay put in order to get the pictures. Our POC escorted us up to the dispatch center. We were greeted by some very excited and appreciative dispatchers, one of which had been on duty on Wednesday when the first round of HOPE dogs visited, so she definitely had to get all of our trading cards to complete her set (for now). We spent the next 2 hours visiting with both the day shift and night shift dispatch crews. It was extremely interesting hearing their stories of what happens on their shifts, how long their shifts can be, how they share the duties, and of course about their own animals. About 1930 hours while we were still on site, a call came in that one of the dispatchers that had just left the center at end of shift, had been in an auto accident on the way home - luckily she was not injured, so everyone took a deep breath. |

CGC |
| Description: I was initially contacted via email by Paul Parker, Chief Deputy Director regarding Calvin and I being deployed to visit his staff of 250 employees who deal with death in some way or another all day, every day. His focus is on employee well-being and HOPE AACR would be an important part of this master plan of integrating crisis response dogs, chaplaincy programs, mindfulness training and increased availability of psychological and mental health resources. Calvin and I were specifically referred to him by an attendee of the LA Science Museum Gala of which many of our HOPE dogs attended. I had a phone conversation with Paul prior to our deployment as well as with the Public Information Officer, Sarah Ardalani, who created and sent out a flyer with Calvin’s picture and information on it to all employees notifying them of our upcoming visit. I was met in the main lobby by Paul and Sarah and for the following 3.5 hours we walked through each department in 3 buildings visiting with all staff that were available. Calvin was so well received by all and even pampered by one employee that brought him designer cookies from Pasadena. Everyone that interacted with Calvin all left smiling and were thrilled to receive a HOPE card from Calvin. At the end of our visit, Calvin received an LA Coroner’s pin and we were honored to be told we were now considered family. In Paul Parker’s follow-up email from our visit he states that “our visit was the most positive addition to his office in many years.” He saw relationships with his staff and between his staff as well as smiles and happiness that was unobservable prior to our visit. Paul expressed to me that he would like Calvin and I to come up once per month as our time allows as he feels that Calvin has made an impressionable bond with his staff. |

| 05/20/2019 | Archway Cicero Elementary Parent Death | Archway Cicero Elementary School | None |
CGC |
| Description: I received a call from the Vice Principal late Sunday afternoon requesting a team to visit the school Monday morning in support of a 1st grader who lost his mother very unexpectedly that that weekend. We have been deployed to the school several times before in past years and the school is part of a charter network of schools who have also used our services in the past several years. No other teams were available so I decided to deploy because of the relationships we had created with the administrators. It was an unusual grief support deployment since it was a parent death so impact on other students was minimal. On arriving, I met the VP in her office and she explained the particulars of the situation and that the student was in school, a decision by the father, to put some normalacy in his day after his loss. She asked us to spend the first hour of school with just him and then we would possibly visit the classroom. His teacher brought him to the VP office and stayed for about 10 minutes after introductions, all very “upbeat”, what a sweet dog, etc. then left so it was just Yodi, the boy and I sitting on the floor interacting. The door was open to the hallway so staff walking by would stop when they saw us, stick their head in and comment about the cute little dog, some coming in to pet him, most probably aware of the situation, all pretty “upbeat”. We talked about a range of topic (pets, school, soccer, legos, favorite animals, camp, friends, bikes...) and pet Yodi who laid with the boy. He wiped his eyes a 4 or 5 times during the visit but seemed to be trying to be strong and “normal”. It was rather tough. Once he said “My mother died this weekend and my father lost his car.” Another “Last night I dreamt my mother was alive but I know she’s not”. Walking a fine line between being supportive, “I’m so sorry” and not going down a path that might have taken the conversation deeper, was somewhat challenging. Usually you have Counselors available nearby when that type of support is needed. He really seemed to like Yodi being there and there was pretty constant boy-dog engagement. Another teacher came and got him after about an hour. He thanked us for coming and was pretty excited about Yodi’s trading card, showing it to the teacher and hugging Yodi. We visted with some of the other students for about another 20 minutes in the hallways and lobby area. The VP was in a meeting and there didn’t appear to be further need for us so the admin staff thanked us for being there and supporting the boy and we left. |

CGC |
| Description: On Thursday, May 24th, I received a call from Emily Craig of Cal Fire advising us that Los Angeles County Fire Department had lost one of their long time dispatchers to a heart attack. Emily stated LACFD had seen our social media post of visits we made to Cal Fire dispatch. Emily gave LACFD my contact information for a possible deployment request. I was contacted by Lead Dispatcher Ed Pickett. Ed asked us if we could respond to the LAFD Command and Control Center Facility in LA on Friday and cover all shifts. On Friday May, 25th, Bari and Star and Henry and I arrived at the Command Center @ 0545. We visited with the midnight shift from 0600 - 0700. We then attended the day shift dispatch briefing @ 0700 and made visits till about 0800. At 1800, Jan and Muffin, Katherine and Teddy and Grace and Bagel visited with dispatchers till about 2000. From all accounts, our ability to respond on such short notice and the fact we were able to send 5 teams astonished the LACFD personnel. They were also amazed by our teams training and calm canines. |

Since we had been to Evart High School the previous February for another student death, the school, counselors, and the crisis response team were familiar with HOPE and we all worked together nicely. We met with the counselors and staff before the students arrived to plan the day. This was the last day of school and only a one-half day was scheduled. We did a meet and greet when the children arrived, deployed to classrooms where needed, did individual comfort to students and staff, and participated in an assembly. After the students were dismissed, we participated in a debriefing with faculty and staff. |

PSW |
| Description: This was our second visit to the LA Coroner's Office of which Calvin was very happily received again. We visited their staff from each of the three buildings and Calvin also met some new staff which were not working on the day of our previous visit. There was a great amount of conversation since our last visit regarding Calvin and his role as a HOPE AACR member which brought out more staff to meet and great Calvin. Calvin continues to make a very positive impression on the staff and they all wished their own animals were just as calm and comforting as are "all HOPE AACR dogs". Many cards were given out to those staff new to Calvin. We met some medical students from Ireland and Calvin had the opportunity to comfort a young lady that was tearful on the phone talking to her family overseas. We also had the opportunity to visit with medical physician (coroners), prior to their staff meeting which brought many smiles to their faces. I was given a card by a staff member of their former K-9 dog - Indiana "Indy" Bones, handler Karina Peck. He was a German Shepherd from the Netherlands and was a Human Remains Detection Canine who worked for the LA County Medical Examiner Office. He has unfortunately passed on, but leaves a legacy of love and professionalism with the LA Coroner's Office. Lastly, unbeknown to me, the staff wanted to celebrate Calvin's June birthday, so two administrative assistants bought a "dog birthday cake" with Calvin's name on it to celebrate his June birthday; a very thoughtful gesture. Another employee gifted Calvin with as oversized tennis ball. A lot of kindness and appreciation to HOPE AACR in a daily difficult environment. |

PSW |
| Description: We were called on 6/25 to serve the 911 dispatchers at MCSO due to the pending death of a 40 year old dispatcher. The caller expressed that it was a lot of additional stress with everything else that they had going on, so they thought our dogs might lighten their load a bit. Stephanie found most all dispatchers to be in good spirits with no one really expressing any sadness. Jamie and Diane had a similar outcome. Diane stated that she and Jamie found it fascinating to listen in on calls, and really wondered how situations would play out. I found it amazing at how seemlessly these dispatchers flowed from conversations with us to doing their jobs when they received a call. They all seemed to really enjoy the dogs. The times were chosen to hit dispathers from both day and pm shifts |

| 06/27/2019 | Regional San Jose CISM Debriefing | Bay Area Critical Incident Debriefing Team | None |

| Description: We were contacted by the Bay Area CISM team to respond to a local hospitals peer support leader. They had a group of nurses that had been camping together the week prior and one of their nurses, who was very young, was found dead in the morning. The staff was having a very difficult time and the Bay Area CISM team and HOPE dog teams were asked to be there the week prior for support and then were asked again for the official debriefing. Only Lady Grace and I were present for the debriefing, and she was very well received. I received multiple texts after the deployment from some of the other peer support counselors that this was the first time that there was a dog present, and wished they had the opportunity of having a dog to help people. One counselor said "it was incredible to watch her lay down in the middle and as she was exhaling, everyone's stress level palpably decreased. It was amazing to watch." |

| 07/11/2019 | Phoenix Municiple Court | Law Department City Prosecutor’s Office Victim Services Unit | none |
PSW |
| Description: I was called to assist in a domestic violence case, the victim was a teenage girl afraid to testify against her ex-boyfriend. We met the victim and her mother along with the Teresa Fyffe, Victim Advocate, and the attorney, for several hours before the proceedings began. The victim was very nervous, literally shaking constantly and only found relief when she petted Cinder. The defendant chose not to plead guilty in the case, thus, the trial ensued. This news created even more anxiety for the victim. The defense attorney objected vehemently to the presence of a "Courtroom Dog," even to the point of asking the presiding judge for the entire court system to get involved. I gave our attorney the letter stating Cinder and I had extensive training, she was a working dog, etc., etc., and was allowed to be present during the proceedings. The defense attorney still wanted it noted for the record that she objected to the presence of a "Courtroom Dog." When the victim testified I sat in a chair behind her holding Cinder's leash while Cinder sat at her feet in the witness box. The victim often looked down, smiled, and petted Cinder on the head, it seemed to calm her down a bit. We returned to the gallery to listen to the defendants testimony, hear closing arguments and the judgment. Unfortunately the defendant was found not-guilty. This caused the victim to abruptly stand and storm out of the courtroom. Teresa, her mother and I followed her out into the hallway. After composing herself she seemed relieved it was all over. They all thanked Cinder and me for being there and thought it really helped lessen her anxiety. We rode down the elevator together and said our goodbyes. |
