River Valley Riders enriches the lives of children and adults with special needs by providing equine assisted activities and therapies, including therapeutic horseback riding and carriage driving lessons. Our program helps participants gain self-confidence and self-esteem, build strength, improve balance and hand-eye coordination, while forming meaningful relationships.
Due to safety concerns for the rider/driver, volunteers and horses, the rider's weight and balance may limit participation, the site selection, and hour for riding. Due to safety concerns for the rider/driver and following PATH Intl. recommendations, the minimum age to participate is 4 years old.
