We always welcome Scout projects (Eagle / Gold Award). We love having the opportunity to collaborate with a scout to help meet a need we have and they hit all of their goals to secure their scout badge(s).
Past Eagle Scout projects have included:
Vaulting stretching barrels with handles, an outdoor picnic table and guests benches, outdoor bench seating, activity stand, outdoor covered seating area, etc.
We are always in need of additional activities for our clients and guests to enjoy and enhance their therapeutic experience at The American Therapeutic Riding Center.

Mission Statement
Our purpose in this world is to provide healing to the people who need it, education to people who seek it and promote a sense of community though the use of equine assisted therapy.

We provide Equine Assisted Services (EAS) to individuals with special needs. A legal diagnosis is required and a referral by a counselor, medical professional, social worker and/or therapist. We serve ages up to mid sixties. We serve seven public schools through therapeutic riding (elementary spec ed) and/or working with counselors (elementary and high school) in trauma informed small groups, groups and individuals.
