Testimonials

“Cutlass has had the most amazing experience with SSITRA over the last 5 years. He has grown in confidence through the program and is now able to focus for longer periods of time. Through that focus Cutlass has learned the skills required to prepare his horse through grooming, tacking, riding & directing the horse he is working with. Therapeutic Riding has empowered Cutlass and he has learned to overcome obstacles within his Neurodiversity, and he has learned many lessons that will support him throughout his life.”

~ Melissa J (Parent)

“The program provides a highly motivating platform for participation and engagement in therapeutic goals that support functional skill development. My clients have repeatedly expressed excitement and pure joy about their participation in SSTRA programs. A parent recently stated that the volunteers and instructor were "very professional," "very educational," and they "got the dynamics of (individual) children very quickly." In short, they were "awesome!" We are extremely fortunate to have this invaluable resource in our small community and I recommend them to families without hesitation.”
