Mission Statement

Hinds' Feet Farm is dedicated to serving persons living with brain injury. Our mission is to maximize the post injury potential of persons living with brain injury with integrated, unique and holistic programs; allowing our members to pursue meaningful activities while developing a sense of belonging at home and in the surrounding communities. We will accomplish this mission with unique, person-centered, post-rehabilitation, community-based programs

Description

The Hinds' Feet Farm Day Program is a paradigm shift from the traditional medical, treatment, model for people living with brain injury, to a model that embraces a holistic health and wellness orientation, empowering members toward occupation and meaning in life post injury. Created by, and for, persons living with brain injury; members actively participate throughout the entire infrastructure of the program. Hinds' Feet Farm is person-centered, member empowered, self- determined, free choice, conce ptualized and driven program.

Therapeutic Horseback Riding for our members is available in the fall and spring weather permitting. Riding sessions are overseen by our riding instructor and Day Program Coordinator, Alison Spasoff, MA, NARHA Certified Riding Instructor, Program Staff and Trained Horse/Equine Volunteers.

Therapeutic Horse Riding would not be possible at Hinds' Feet Farm without the selfless generosity of our volunteers. Volunteers assist program staff to keep our riding activities safe and fun. If you are interested in volunteering in our Riding Program, please contact Alison and see our website for volunteer paperwork. Our horses are also cared for by additional equine barn volunteers who donate their time generously to care for our seven therapy horses throughout the year. If you are interested in volunteering in the barn, please contact Sydney Foil, and see our website for volunteer paperwork.
