Centennial AGC Charities Autodesk Operation Opening Doors Project
WHAT WE’RE DOING
AGC Charities is partnering with Davis Construction and many other volunteer construction firms to build a new healing quarters for Warrior Canine Connection by renovating a historic dairy barn in Boyds, Maryland. Warrior Canine Connection is a nonprofit that works with veterans with invisible wounds like post-traumatic stress disorder to train service dogs to help other veterans in need.
ABOUT THE RENOVATION
The barn renovation will preserve much of the 1930s-era structure while building modern office, meeting and training spaces where veterans can work and bond with their animals. The improved structure will also include overnight space on the barn’s second floor for veterans who are going through the program to stay and relax. All told, AGC Charities expects to provide over $3 million worth of work to the barn.

MORE ABOUT WARRIOR CANINE CONNECTION
Warrior Canine Connection is a nonprofit organization that helps veterans with invisible injuries like post-traumatic stress disorder return home from combat and learn to reintegrate into society by training service dogs for fellow veterans. The training process provides incredible therapeutic benefit to the wounded warriors and, once trained, the service dogs provide immense benefits to the veterans they serve. Although Warrior Canine Connection is headquartered just outside Washington, DC, its impact stretches across the country by providing mission-based therapy and service animals to veterans from all throughout the United States.
