Mission Statement: To provide alternative therapeutic and recreational Equine activities to the at risk, special needs individuals and veterans in our community.
I Can Ride Inc. was founded in 2021 with the passion to help our community experience a unique and beneficial opportunity. The three founding members had been associated with the equine world through different avenues. One had the amazing experience of witnessing first hand how hippotherapy can change a life as her non ambulatory granddaughter learned to walk while participating in equine assisted activities. Another has been offering hippotherapy to our community for over 20 years as a Physical Therapist. The third has given our community the facility where they can come and have a unique experience the equine for over 20 years.
