Join Droste Mental Health Services and Puppies Behind Bars for an evening that celebrates the incredible bond between humans and their four-legged healers.

While we’ll be diving into the science of recovery and how we find meaning after life’s difficult chapters, the tone of the night is one of progress and optimism. This isn’t just a lecture; it’s an interactive look at how trauma is transformed into purpose through dedication, training, and companionship.

May 21, 2026 | 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Church of Our Saviour, 59 Park Ave, New York, NY 10016
