Monthly Teen Event: Equine Assisted Learning

Equine-Assisted Learning is an experiential learning technique that facilitates personal growth by teaching social/emotional and life skills through horsemanship and riding. This program helps youth build confidence and self-esteem, enhance focus, reduce stress and anxiety, and foster self-development and awareness through the equine/human bond. By developing social/ emotional competencies and confidence, we hope to create resilient youth who can successfully navigate their teenage years and become leaders among their peers and productive, contributing members of our community.

Our monthly teen group combines fun with skill building and connection! All members of the group are adopted and experiencing similar issues, allowing them to see that the problems they are facing are the same as many other adopted teens. Led by a licensed therapist with support by trained mentors, we help your teen to feel more comfortable in their surroundings and make it more likely that they are willing to open up and discuss what is happening to them, giving them a greater change at healing and growth.
