Summary: The Dog Show w/ Julie Forbes #97 - January 5, 2011 Guest: Ellen O'Neill-Stephens, founder of Courthouse Dogs. Since 2003 courthouse dogs have provided comfort to sexually abused children while they undergo forensic interviews and testify in court. The dogs also assist drug court participants in their recovery, visit juveniles in detention facilities, greet jurors and lift the spirits of courthouse staff who often conduct their business in an adversarial setting.
