Paws For Patrick is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the mental health of young people through the emotional support of animals.It was created to honor the memory of Patrick Roemer who brought joy to so many people during his short life. His family will always cherish memories of his infectious laugh, heart-warming smile, analytical conversation, authentic creativity, discipline for physical fitness, and especially his love of animals, particularly dogs.His friends remember him for his sharp and often irreverent wit, his patient and compassionate listening, his loyalty, and fearless competitive nature as witnessed in his participation in wrestling, football, rugby, and obstacle course races.​Unfortunately, Patrick struggled with depression and anxiety through most of his young life, and this disease took him from his loved ones at the young age of 18. Thus, Paws for Patrick was created in his honor. Our goal is to help alleviate the burden of those trying to acquire an ESA for mental health purposes through our unique Wish Granter program. Whether it be obtaining an ESA certification letter; finding a new companion and paying for adoptions fees; securing and paying for a trainer that works for each person; coordinating approval for housing for dorms & apartments with “No pets allowed” rules, each client is handled on a case-by-case basis with their individual Wish Granter. We are committed to helping you from beginning to end. We provide opportunities for young people to interact with our trained therapy dogs and their handlers in group and individual settings such as schools, therapy sessions, youth organizations and more. We are actively building a network of partners and school consortiums to engage our therapy dogs wherever young people need them most. The benefits of these interactions will leave a paw print on your heart forever!
