Equine Assisted ABA BI Sessions
NOTE: Equine ABA is not therapeutic riding, and riding is not a core component of the program. Riding is not guaranteed for any learner.
Equine Assisted Behaviour Intervention
1:1 ABA session with an Equine BI and the horses. An individualized program is developed and supervised by a RASP A BCBA. Programs are implemented by our trained Equine BIs. Some students may need an additional staff member to act as horse handler. This is up to the BCBAs discretion.
Equine ABA sessions require one overlap every 4-6 sessions with the BCBA to maintain supervision standards and program integrity.

Mindful Mustangs
DROP IN Mondays at 4 PM
This program is based on the principles of ACT and the importance of tethering oneself to the present moment when emotions try to sweep us away.
Have you ever tried to not think about something? Chances are the thought becomes stronger. ACT focuses on accepting feelings and thoughts as they come rather than forcing them out of our consciousness. With children and youth, we do this by focusing on our physical senses.
