These service dogs are trained right here in North Dakota to assist Veterans who suffer from PTSD. The dogs provide the special needs of the veteran they are to serve whether it is calming anxiety attacks, providing comfort and assurance in public settings or waking a veteran from a nightmare. PTSD service dogs have proven to greatly assist Veterans in returning to a more normal life and reintegrating back into their community. Service Dogs for America has several of these highly trained service dogs ready to be placed with a veteran in need. To meet the minimum qualifications for a PTSD service dog the Veteran must be a North Dakota resident, have a diagnosis of PTSD, be engaged in counseling or therapy and have a doctor s recommendation for a PTSD Service Dog. All qualified Veterans are urged to apply. The grant is made possible by the 63rd ND Legislative Assembly and private donors. North Dakota Department of Veterans Affairs news The North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) has a new series of Patriotic Plates available for purchase for North Dakota citizens. The new plates are available to all North Dakota vehicle owners and can be purchased at any of the Motor Vehicle Branch Offices in the state or by filling out an application form ( dot.nd.gov/forms/sfn54397.pdf) available online through the NDDOT ( website. The law enabling creation of the plate series was passed during the 2015 Legislative Session HB1360 ( veterans/legislation/house/hb1360). The Patriotic Plate series includes Boonie Stomper ( which became available October 2016, along with Flag of the United States ( and Bald Eagle ( veterans/bald-eagle-license-plate) which will be available starting July 1, During the last year, the NDDOT along with the North Dakota Department of Veterans Affairs and Roughrider Industries have worked together to develop the plates, says Lindi Michlitsch, NDDOT Motor Vehicle Director. The artwork on the plates are beautiful and are a great way for motor vehicle owners to show their patriotism. The cost of the plates are $25, plus regular registration fees, with a portion going to the Veterans Postwar Trust Fund which is used to benefit and service veterans or their dependents. These new plates are a great way to show your American pride and patriotism and they allow you to support our
