Join WCC’s Class of 2023 Virtual Graduation

Is Saturday, September 23, 2023, marked on your calendar? If not, be sure to save the date for WCC’s class of 2023 virtual graduation ceremony! A little over a month out, the commencement ceremony will start at 11 a.m. ET sharp on WCC’s Facebook page and on our YouTube channel.

The virtual ceremony will be marked by powerful Veteran Service Dog Team videos, namesake stories, and so much more!

In addition to the virtual ceremony, WCC will host an in-person celebration at its Healing Quarters in Boyds, Maryland, from 1-4 p.m. ET, and everyone is welcome to join. Members of this year’s graduating class, including Veteran Service Dog Teams, will attend the celebration, as well as many from previous graduations. In addition, puppy parents, who have helped train the dogs, as well as several namesake families who have a personal connection to dogs named after them or a loved one, will also be in attendance.

All graduating service dogs will have completed WCC’s intensive, Mission Based Trauma Recovery (MBTR) training conducted by Warriors in recovery who learn to train mobility service dogs for fellow Warriors as a means of addressing their own symptoms of combat stress.

Whether virtually or in-person, we hope you will join us to celebrate WCC’s class of 2023!
