Dyson Professor Kimberly Collica-Cox Op-Ed was published in the Daily News: “I was having such anxiety…I’m not saying I was going to hurt myself, but when those pups came in, I’m just saying, it saved me.” This is the voice of an incarcerated mother who misses her children, a graduate of Parenting, Prison and Pups (PPP), the first and only program of its kind. Since 2017, PPP, an evidence-based parenting program, integrated with animal-assisted therapy (AAT), is provided to incarcerated mothers at the Westchester County Department of Correction, in partnership with Pace University and Hudson Valley Paws for a Cause. With March hailed as Second Chance Month, a commitment to furthering reintegrative processes, PPP provides a second chance to incarcerated mothers who want to maintain healthy bonds with their children.

Our courses incorporate archival research and community collaboration.
