HORSEPOWER is a therapeutic equestrian program, that provides both challenges and rewards to people with physical, mental, emotional and social disabilities. These disabilities may include multiple sclerosis, autism, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries, Parkinson's disease, Down's syndrome, stroke and depression, as well as victims of physical, mental or emotional abuse. Through interaction with horses and horseback riding, these individuals derive educational, physical and social benefits that include learning new skills, building self-confidence, enhanced physical fitness, increased muscle strength and flexibility, interpersonal skills, concentration skills, patience and self-discipline.
Through certified instructors, dedicated volunteers, generous donors and trained horses, many people with disabilities are able to participate in this unique and enriching program. In addition, we offer a Youth Program for "at risk", and a HORSEPOWER Club for local high school students.
