Jacob's Ladder Therapeutic Riding Center
Welcome to Jacobs' Ladder Therapeutic Riding Center. We developed this web site to help people learn the joys, and benefits of therapeutic riding.
Our Goal Is to reach members of our community who were previously unable to consider riding due to physical or mental disabilities, who are interested in furthering their knowledge of horses and are interested in learning to ride horses in a safe, non-stressful environment.
To provide an outlet for the recreational and developmental needs of school-age children and adults.
To promote an "I can do it!" attitude for those who have previously been limited in their abilities.
To offer, for those who are interested, the opportunity to compete in Special Olympics Horse Show, and ACORD(American Competition Opportunities for Riders with Disabilities) shows.
