Welcome
The Equestrian Therapy Program has been providing therapeutic horseback riding for people with disabilities in our area for over 40 years! Our riders are sent to us through the therapy departments of local hospitals, through private physician referral, and through the multi-handicapped classes of various area schools. During each session, we will average 68 participants each week receiving this “therapy on horseback”. We feel we are making a difference in many lives which have been fractured by disability.
We know that you are besieged with requests from all kinds of charitable organizations. We all need to be informed about our giving. It is important to note that ALL of the funds and services donated to the Equestrian Therapy Program stay here in our own area to help our own clients. We have 3 registered instructors, 1 therapist certified in hippo therapy and a corps of more than 120 dedicated men, women, and teenage volunteers from our ten-county area.
We also provide Equine Assisted Psychotherapy, Equine Assisted Learning and Team trainings. Please visit our website at www.etpfarm.org.
We are proud of the work that we do – and we ask you to consider helping us in our efforts. All of our classes are held at Fassett Farm on Grubb/Bowsher Road; we invite you to come out to see them in action. If you can come, please call us at 419-657-2700 so that we can give you a schedule and directions. Thank you for your consideration!
