Mission
Special Equestrians provides therapeutic riding programs to individuals with physical, mental, and emotional disabilities.
-
Special Equestrians equine-assisted therapies and learning programs use the powerful healing properties of therapeutic riding and unmounted groundwork to help individuals with physical, cognitive, and emotional disabilities develop new skills and reach higher levels of functioning. SE is a Premier Accredited PATH (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship) International Center; our facility, staff, and programming meet all relevant PATH Intl. Certification standards. We are committed to serving anyone who can benefit from our services, regardless of their ability to pay. If families cannot afford to pay our low fees, they can apply for additional financial assistance. We provide scholarships for roughly 30 percent of our riders.We work successfully with riders who meet criteria for more than 60 different disabling diagnoses, including cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, brain injuries, and Autism Spectrum Disorders. In addition, we have group programs for children and youth at risk for school failure; children and young adults enrolled in Autism intensive support classrooms and day programs; women and girls recovering from domestic trauma and personal health challenges; seniors with age-related disabilities; children grieving the loss of a family member, and those affected by a relative living with cancer. Representing diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds, 80 percent of our riders were 18 or younger.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
