Empathy Unleashed w/ Audrey Hendler

Audrey Hendler is the Founder and Executive Director of A Fair Shake, a program that uses the power of registered therapy dogs to help middle school children develop a foundation of empathy and self-esteem, and reduce bullying. As the kids learn to work with the dogs they learn about themselves and each other in ways that open up new possibilities for their lives. Previously, Audrey had worked at Puppies Behind Bars - a program where prison inmates help train and raise service dogs for wounded war veterans and first responders, as well as explosive-detection canines for law enforcement, which inspired her to create A Fair Shake.
