Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) is a human service organization, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. ITA volunteers (people and their own companion animals) have been serving their communities since 1993. They visit those who are physically or developmentally disabled, emotionally or psychologically impaired, lonely or suffering from depression, in settings ranging from hospitals, counseling centers, nursing, extended care and memory care centers, detention homes, schools and libraries in Utah, Montana and Idaho. Research has shown that animals can have a significant positive impact for people with a whole range of diagnoses and situations. ITA animals can induce immediate physiological improvements, including lower blood pressure, slower reading, greater calm and relaxation. They go on to enhance therapeutic goals that include: Empathy • Physical Contact • Outward Focus • Nurturing • Mental Stimulation • Rapport • Acceptance of Self and Situation • Patient Compliance • Socialization
