In May 2025, Crisis Center North published its latest academic article, entitled “It’s All About the Ruff: Utilizing Therapy Dogs to Address Trauma in Domestic Violence Settings.” The article was published in the People and Animals: The International Journal of Research and Practice (PAIJ), the official peer-reviewed open-access publication of the International Association of Human-Animal Interaction Organizations (IAHAIO, www.iahaio.org). PAIJ publishes articles related to research and practice in the fields of animal-assisted interventions (AAI) and human-animal interactions (HAI) where the wellbeing of humans and animals are concerned.
