Can a day at the animal shelter help your mental health? | The New Volunteers | Roadtrip Nation

🚨CUTE PUPPIES & KITTENS AHEAD! 🚨
This week, we’re in Austin, Texas, meeting the awesome high school student-volunteers who run Paw Plan-an org dedicated to improving the lives of shelter animals, one paw at a time. 🐾
As Anatola and crew experience the mental health benefits of volunteering firsthand, you’ll see why the Paw Plan volunteers choose to prioritize community service-even on a stress-filled weekend packed with standardized tests and prom!
