How could we make this possible again for next year? How could we sustain this seemingly magical place of hope and change? A decision was made to pursue becoming a NARHA (North American Riding for the Handicapped) Member Center and for some of our volunteers to become certified instructors. NARHA added EFMHA (Equine Facilitated Mental Health Assoc.) to the services it offers, thereby expanding our services to add non-riding therapeutic activities. This change will allow us to offer so much more than a riding experience to those individuals who can benefit from communication and learning that Equine Assisted Activities and Therapy can bring to so many in need. Recently, NARHA has changed its name to PATH (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship Int.).
With the help of many giving individuals and donations and charity fundraisers we were able to sustain the horses over the winter. The time and talents of our dedicated volunteers were directed in the pursuit of certification through NARHA to become instructors. We provide enhanced services and educational benefits through horse related activities. We look forward with great excitement and growing expectations to a new season of growth and change. Thank you for your continued support of our new center. Without many of you it would not have been possible.
