Animal Assisted Therapy and Vocational Training

Come out for a free tour and see how you can utilize an 80 acre farm of opportunities to help motivate your child to succeed and be more independent at home and in the workplace using horse, dog, and occupational therapy services tailored to your child, or your groups specific interests and needs. One mom noted how her children did not sleep before their first occupational therapy session on horseback! After 4 sessions, her daughter gained enough strength, balance, and confidence to ride a two wheeled bike!

In addition to hippotherapy services, and therapeutic riding, Taking The Lead, Inc. offers a unique life skills program and a vocational training program overseen by an occupational therapist.
