Autism, Asperger’s and any sensory processing disorder can lead to an isolating and frustrating journey for both child and parent. Children with autism struggle with making friends and understanding their emotions as well as being aware of social cues from peers.
Herd By a Horse was a pilot program created in 2016 to address this particular issues. Today, we use “Forward Strides” to use these specific activities to stimulate various parts of their brain and strengthen everyday living skills. Some weeks involve grooming, bathing a horse, riding, using the sensory trail or low ropes course or a variety of other activities. Programs operate spring and fall.
