This Month’s Issue: Serving Those Who Served

As someone who has a history of owning some less-than-obedient dogs, I’m always impressed by the truly well-trained ones out there. This month’s cover story on Canines for Service highlights a nonprofit helping dogs go above and beyond as service animals assisting U.S. military veterans. We’re also recognizing Black History Month with two stories about how African Americans made strides toward equality following the Civil War and into the early 1900s. Also, well-deserved congratulations go out to lineworkers who’ve recently completed intensive training programs.
