Mission Statement
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.
Through the therapeutic services we offer, our students build strong and positive relationships with their horses, fellow students, and dedicated volunteer teams, providing a positive impact on body, mind, and spirit.
