Asista’s governing board is made up of multiple administrators ranging from a variety of backgrounds who meet regularly to discuss policy, emerging issues and the implementation of new services and or ideas.
The Asista Foundation was founded by it’s two founders John Agionicolaitis and Solange Barbara. Both dedicated and successful philanthropists, they saw a need for mental health service dog teams which led them to the creation of the foundation. Both animal lovers, they founded the foundation in 2012. To date, the foundation has placed 30 service dog teams.
The success of the foundation is amongst the countless hours put in by our volunteer team and employees.
