A very special program at CV, and one of the most popular among the boys, is the Assistance Dog Training Program. This is a collaboration with East Coast Assistance Dogs (ECAD), who provides the dogs and the expertise in dog training. Students train special service dogs to help children and adults with physical handicaps. Boys can participate in school as a career and technical education course and/or after school as part of a paid work experience. This program gives the troubled youngsters who live at CV the opportunity to experience the unconditional love of a dog and at the same time to help others who are less fortunate than themselves.
