Delta Society changed it's name and logo in order to better convey their mission of improving people's health and enriching their lives through positive connections with therapy, service and companion animals.  Delta Society believes that; "The change to a name that better conveys who we are, what we do and how we help people will enable us to achieve greater public awareness and reach more people through positive connections with therapy, companion and service animals."  Angel Paws is a registered Delta Society/Pet Partners affiliate organization.   Click HERE to read more from Delta/Pet Partners about this change.
