NEXTonSCENE Service Monkeys with Helping Hands Monkey Helpers

Today on the podcast we interview with Executive Director, Angela Lett of the amazing non profit organization Helping Hands Monkey Helpers .  "Since 1979, Helping Hands: Monkey Helpers for the Disabled, Inc. has been helping adults with spinal cord injuries and other mobility impairments throughout the U.S. live more independent and engaged lives. We do this by providing them, free of charge, with a unique service animal: a highly trained service monkey to help with their daily tasks. These animals bring more than just a willing set of nimble hands to their recipients. They also bring companionship, joy, and the renewed sense of purpose that comes from taking responsibility for the health and well-being of another creature."
