Sky News 5/10/2025 News Evaluating facility dogs as a workplace intervention in policing: a randomized controlled trial in New York City The use of professionally trained dogs to support police officer wellness is a rapidly growing practice in police agencies around the world, reflecting a broader recognition of the need for innovative, stigma-reducing approaches to mental health support in law enforcement. This article reports the findings of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that evaluated the effect of professionally trained facility dogs used by the New York City Police Department’s (NYPD) employee assistance program (EAP) for the purpose of addressing officer well-being. A stratified randomized strategy was used to designate which patrol units would receive the treatment condition, which consisted of exposure to a facility dog during EAP informational sessions targeting NYPD officers. The sessions were conducted by EAP counselors, who are also sworn members of the department. Four dimensions related to officer mental health and well-being were evaluated: willingness to use the EAP, perceived organizational support (POS), perceived EAP support, and receptivity to the use of dogs to address officer wellness. The study found that exposure to a facility dog significantly increased officers perceived organizational support (POS), perceived EAP support, and receptivity to the use of dogs for wellness purposes, although it did not affect officers’ willingness to use the EAP. These findings suggest that professionally trained dogs may serve as a, high-impact strategy for enhancing officer wellness and organizational support in police agencies. As such, integrating facility dogs into officer wellness programs may offer a practical, stigma-reducing approach to improve mental health support and address challenges such as low POS, which is associated with reduced organizational commitment and disengagement from proactive policing.
