Helping Hands is a non-profit organisation that breeds, raises and trains capuchin monkeys to provide daily assistance to people living with spinal cord injuries. Capuchin monkeys are native to Central and South America, but all the monkeys used by Helping Hands are born and raised in the United States. They’re quite small, weighing about 6-10 pounds and reaching a height of 15 inches. Their lifespan of 30-40 years allows them long careers as assistance animals. As they’re intelligent, adaptable and sociable, they make perfect partners to humans, lending a hand and offering companionship. In the same way as guide dogs provide eyes to the blind, Helping Hands monkeys provide hands to individuals with physical disabilities, more specifically, those who are quadriplegic. These people are paralysed from the neck down due to an accident, injury or disease.
The monkeys are specially bred at Southwick Zoo in Massachusetts. At the age of 5-10 years, they are taken into foster homes to get used to living with humans. After this, they enter Monkey College in Boston when they are between 12 and 18 years old and embark on their training in earnest. During the training process, each monkey masters simple everyday activities such as helping with the use of telephones, opening a bottle and setting up a drink of water, scratching an itch, and picking up a dropped object.
(I) Throughout their training, monkeys are encouraged to complete tasks and are rewarded with praise, affection and small treats. (II) The trainers, who sit in wheelchairs for training purposes, never threaten to use physical force. (III) Laser pointers and simple words are the main means of guiding monkeys to carry out their tasks. (IV)
Helping Hands is able to provide these specially-trained service animals and their lifetime support, including all their training, food and equipment, free of charge. This is only possible because of the generosity of donors and they ask people to help them by giving whatever they can afford. In 1998, Helping Hands launched an educational programme designed to raise awareness among young people of the issues surrounding spinal cord injury. The programme tries to persuade young people not to take risks that could result in such injuries, as well as asking them to consider the challenges that people suffering from such disabilities face.
