Emotional Support Animals

 Emotional support animals or mental health animals are assistance animals that comfort and support mental health patients. ESAs can help with physical tasks without training, unlike service animals. Instead, they provide companionship, reduce loneliness, alleviate mental health symptoms, and provide calm and security.



ESAs and service animals must be distinguished to avoid confusion. Service animals are trained to guide the blind or warn epileptics of impending seizures. The ADA allows these animals to enter restaurants, stores, and transportation.

ESAs are not trained to perform specific tasks and are not ADA-protected like service animals. ESA owners still have housing and travel rights under the Fair Housing Act (FHA) and the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA).
