Therapeutic Activities and Outings
For the past two summers our youth were able to experience fun in the sun literally while enjoying festivities on the ranch of A Horse’s Friend, located in Rush NY. A Horse’s Friend is an outreach program whose mission is to expose youth from the inner city to the world of horse’s through it’s horsemanship programs.
The youth also engaged in a wide variety of summer activities such as music therapy, braid bootcamp, painting, and career choices.
