    NEADS World Class Service Dogs ("NEADS Inc.", formerly known as National Education for Assistance Dog Services and Dogs for Deaf and Disabled Americans) was established in 1976.

    NEADS World Class Service Dogs are highly trained to:

    * Provide independence and companionship when matched with people who are deaf or have physical disabilities, and also certain veterans who have PTSD
    * Promote confidence and socialization when matched with children who have autism or other developmental disabilities
    * Provide integrated therapeutic assistance when matched with caring professionals in settings like classrooms, hospitals, courthouses, mental health practices, and the ministry

    NEADS has trained more than 1,900 Service Dog teams from all states since 1976. Each year we train over 50 teams and hold two graduation ceremonies per year to mark the occasions.
