Description

Developed in partnership with Yale University and North Shore Animal League America, the Mutt-i-grees Curriculum is designed to teach to the whole child. Enhancing students’ social and emotional competence, they learn critical skills that are the foundation of academic and life-long success. Viewing life through the lens of rescue pets’ students develop empathy, learn what it is to have resiliency and make ethical decisions. These skills help students to move beyond themselves and care about others, animals, the environment – the world. With service learning at its base, it teaches students that no matter your age, you have the power to make positive change happen.

The curriculum lessons can be implemented in various settings: character education, after-school programs, health and welfare, special education, and libraries. The program is in over 5,000 schools and libraries in all 50 states, plus Washington DC and Canada. Expansion has also included: Guam, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Bosnia, Croatia and Morocco.
