Indiana Canine Assistant Network (ICAN) brings together three uncommon groups - children and adults with disabilities, incarcerated adults, and dogs - to assist people in living their lives more productively and with increased independence. ICAN is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, supported by the generosity of private donors and grantors.
ICAN trains and places skilled service dogs for people in Indiana who have physical or developmental disabilities, while also promoting job and life management skills to offenders who conduct the dogs' training in Indiana correctional facilities. Priority placement is given to children & adolescents.
ICAN service dogs are trained to assist children and adults who are managing various health conditions, including such things as cerebral palsy, autism, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries, arthritis, and neuromuscular disorders. ICAN also places dogs with veterans who are managing a disabling condition.
At ICAN we are changing lives and unleashing abilities on both ends of the leash!
