About this campaign
The Canine Advocacy Program (CAP) was created in 2009 to provide a highly trained Canine Advocate that would accompany a child victim to interviews as well as court appearances.
CAP was developed by its director, Daniel Cojanu as result of an idea from a coworker while employed as a Victim Services supervisor. After researching various programs around the country, it was felt that Michigan desperately needed such a program to assist child victims who were going to be required to testify.
With a relationship spanning ten years, CAP has partnered with Leader Dogs for the Blind in Rochester, MI to utilize career-changed leader dog candidates for the program. The result of this relationship has been extremely successful, with 30 Canine Advocates spread throughout the State of Michigan. These well-trained dogs are currently utilized by 22 County Prosecutor’s Offices, four Child Care Advocacy Centers, and three Domestic Violence / Sexual Assault Programs.
The work of these Canine Advocates has been widely accepted by many courts throughout the State of Michigan.

I've seen all these puppies grow up to help others.
Leader Dog Lady and I love this program
Our Canine Advocate Griffin is THE BEST!
I have seen young children soothed by these dogs..terrified by the prospect of testifying in court, but being able to do so when the dog is there for them.
I believe in the work being done by Patty and her peers
What an amazing gift to help so many people!
The Canine Advocacy Program does amazing work and we love our CAP dog Preston!
In loving memory of our sweet boy, Amos. In honor of all Canine Advocates, their handlers, and our newest member to the pack, Canine Advocate Frieda. And with special thanks to Dan Cojanu for making a huge difference in the lives of young victims.
