Join Random Hacks of Kindness Junior and Micayla Barrows from Autumn’s Language to learn how emotional support animals positively impact the lives of their companions while working with computer science mentors to create prototype smartphone apps on this importance issue.

Emotional support animals are changing the lives of a growing number of people around the world, providing companionship, comfort, security, and love. An emotional support animal is more than just a beloved pet; it is a new, groundbreaking method of alleviating the challenging symptoms of a range of emotional and mental disabilities.

By creating apps students will experience first hand how they can use technology to create positive change.
