In-community Placement

Fidelco pioneered In-community Placement in the United States. Through this

one-on-one process, our clients are trained to use their guide dogs in their homes, neighborhoods and places of work. And throughout the two-to-three-week training process, they have the support of their family, friends and co-workers. As importantly, In-community Placement allows our professional trainer-instructors to carefully evaluate a new client’s progress up close and personal. We have found in our three decades of placing guide dogs that this training method is the most effective way to create smooth-working teams.
