Alexander Smoliak
president
Alexander is a new dog owner, one of the many people who have adopted a new pet in the past year. He and his wife adopted a female Chihuahua named Bela, and almost immediately noted the positive change in their wellness and with those they interact with in the community.
Alexander has worked in the health and addictions field for close to thirty years, and believes the profound impact that pets have on wellbeing requires ongoing community support, continued advocacy, education and research, particularly at this time of social anxiety and personal stress. The Chimo Animal Assisted Wellness and Learning Society provides the perfect volunteer opportunity to support community wellness through human-animal interaction in Edmonton and surrounding area.
