NICST has really found an important place in people’s lives. As a community partner I know how incredibly needed programs like Dogs4Diabetics, First Response K9’s, and Proof Dogs are and the tremendous impact they are having on the community.

I am so thankful for all the hard work that goes into making these life-saving partnerships possible. I feel 200% times safer with Megumi by my side. She is faster than technology and has proven that since our placement. Megumi has so much personality and fits perfectly into my life. I love Dogs4Diabetics!

Hi, I’m Newton… a “Homeless to Hero Canine”. I’m a rescue dog from Tony La Russa’s Animal Rescue Foundation (ARF) – but now I have a new “leash” on life to help save lives with NICST. Woof!
