Project Title: Providing the partnership of horses and humans
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
Wings of Hope was founded in 1996 to provide inclusion for those with disabilities, specifically for children and adults with physical, mental, or emotional challenges through the partnership of a horse. This partnership allows clients the opportunity to explore new ways to navigate independence, gain tools and skills to sharpen and enhance abilities, discover strengths, and address challenges. The partnership breaks down barriers for someone who has experienced isolation and exclusion through their disability. We serve as an advocate for meeting individuals where they are in life with a focus on abilities rather than disabilities. <\/p>\n
So often those impacted by our mission find that they do not have an outlet that allows them to be comfortable and confident with their disability. Frequently, individuals with disabilities state that life can revolve around a diagnosis, the label, and the stigma that comes with it. Living in exclusion is not a way of life any person or family should have to endure. Time after time we hear stories of how clients served are not able to play a team sport, they are not invited to birthday parties, or included in typical childhood or adult peer networks. <\/p>\n
Wings of Hope provides services through three programs, Therapeutic Riding, Ground-based lessons, and Equine Discovery. <\/p>\n
Therapeutic Riding is horseback riding for individuals seeking physical benefits and movement from the horse to improve gait, flexibility, balance, focus, and communication. <\/p>\n
Ground-based lessons are offered to build self-confidence, trust, and respect for themselves while learning to effectively communicate and bond with a horse. Through ground-based activities, individuals address areas associated with anxiety management, stress, reintegration, communication, and conflict resolution. <\/p>\n
Equine Discovery is for individuals seeking interaction in a peer group setting such as team building or field trips. Improvement of confidence, communication, and self-awareness is achieved through the observation of communication and social skills as learned by the herd.<\/p>\n
