Rosie O'Donnell offers support for RJD POOCH program

The POOCH program at RJ Donovan Correctional Facility (RJD) has found a supporter in TV and film personality Rosie O’Donnell. Showing her support for the program, she visited RJD to meet some of the staff, incarcerated dog trainers and tour the facility. The POOCH program is made possible thanks to Guide Dogs of America/Tender Loving Canines, in partnership with RJD. The program trains incarcerated participants in Non-Designated Programming Facilities to provide a safe, clean, and humane environment for the care, custody, training, and control of dogs. The trained dogs help people with PTSD and autism, while also aiding incarcerated participants’ rehabilitation. The incarcerated trainers play an important role in the POOCH program, helping people beyond prison walls. Dozens of RJD participants are trained to train the dogs.
