On Saturday, March 25th, a few of our students and our graduate assistant participated in one of UNCG's Catalyst Events! Catalyst Events are day-long opportunities to serve with various organizations throughout the community. Saturday's event was called "Action for Animals!”

[Integrative Community Studies(Beyond Academics) @BeyondAcademics]

Participants worked with Horsepower and Skydiamond Rescue. Both organizations provide therapeutic, educational, and recreational activities using horses and other animals.
Throughout the school year, our students have participated in multiple Catalyst Events.
