Illinois canine therapy program launches dedicated hotline, email to request service SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (WCIA) -- A statewide canine therapy program is making it easier for schools, businesses and more to request its services. The Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board (ILETSB) and the Cook County Sheriff's Office (CCSO) announced the launch of a dedicated 24/7 hotline and email address for the Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) Crisis Response Therapy Canine Certification Program. It's the only state-certified public safety therapy canine program in the nation. "This program exists to support people when they need it most—whether that follows a tragedy or simply during moments when a comforting presence can make a meaningful difference," said Sean Smoot, Chairman of the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board. "By establishing a dedicated number and email, we're making it easier for communities throughout Illinois to access this unique resource whenever it is needed."
