Our mission at Boots and Buddies is to empower riders who are steering through a variety of physical, cognitive, sensory, and/or psychosocial challenges by providing equine assisted activities and therapeutic horseback riding.
Description
The dedicated team at Boots and Buddies has developed a multitude of different equine-related activities for therapeutic purposes, collectively known as equine-assisted activities and therapies (EAAT). These activities are supervised by a Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International (PATH) Certified Therapeutic Riding instructor with the assistance of trained volunteers.
