IRS990/Desc0In 2024, Blue Star Service Dogs welcomed 27 Veterans and 2 First Responders into our service dog training program, successfully enrolling 82% of applicants. We introduced 15 students to our STAR Program and included 9 participants in our "Bring Your Own Dog" (BYOD) program.Through our STAR Program, we rescued 18 dogs from shelters across Michigan, placing them in the Saginaw Correctional Facility in Freeland and Thumb Correctional Facility in Lapeer. Additionally, six puppies were donated by a breeder, and were enrolled in the prison program for extended training for later pairing with a Veteran or First Responder. Our prison program involved 52 inmate handlers who provided foundational obedience and pre-task training. Blue Star Service Dogs trainers visited the prisons weekly to guide handlers, assess each dog's progress, and support effective training.In 2024, we proudly celebrated the graduation of 12 service dog teams.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Our education program engages organizations, schools, corporations, and public events to raise awareness about service dog laws and proper etiquette. We also collaborate with businesses to clarify their rights concerning unqualified or "fake" service dogs, helping protect their spaces and programs while ensuring non-discriminatory practices toward individuals with disabilities. In 2024, we completed 47 presentations, supporting our veterans and first responders in navigating civilian life and reconnecting with family, employers, and their communities.
