Joe's Newest Team Member

Meet Quinn — Joe’s new four-legged team member of the Central Alberta Child Advocacy Centre— and our hero this year. Quinn is a Labrador/Golden Retriever cross, trained through Dogs with Wings Assistance Dog Society.

Quinn walks through the doors of CACAC not just as a comfort figure, but as a silent partner in healing — when a child is scared, stressed, or just needing someone to lean on. He sits, listens, offers calm in the chaos. 

For Joe and the team at The Average Joe’s Den, supporting Quinn—and supporting CACAC—means more than a donation in supporting Quinns 2026 burn rate. It’s a promise: we stand beside those with the courage to speak, those striving to heal, those working to break cycles.

To the CACAC staff and to every child who will feel safer because of this dog — Joe’s team is honored to be part of this story.
