Introducing Nancy Parra-Quinlan as the next coordinator. Nancy is an experienced Paws handler with her two pups, Bear & Olaf. She will be leaving her teaching position at Kino Junior High to explore the new world of Paws & Peers! We’re excited for her and know her teaching experience will be a great asset to this position in support of the handlers. Go Nancy!

What an incredible 4 years it has been being the MPS district support specialist. I am so proud of this program. Nelly and I have met so many wonderful educators and therapy dogs. Thank you for following along on Instagram and Facebook. I will greatly miss this work. Nelly has completed ~7.5 years of therapy dog service with me in 💙🩵🐶🐾 We are moving out of state and will be passing off the opportunity to another experienced staff handler.
