John E Fogarty Foundation Awards Grant to Support Equine Care

John E Fogarty Foundation awards grant to support Equine Care

Thanks to the generosity of the John E. Fogarty Foundation, individuals participating at AccessPoint RI will have the opportunity to engage in a discovery process to learn about equine care through the Yellow Horse Equine Therapy Program.  

This unique opportunity will enable participants to explore their interests and potentially find a niche in the community where they can volunteer or work in equine care or as therapeutic assistants and develop relationships based on a common interest.

Topics covered include horse behavior and anatomy, stable management, grooming, and daily care and nutrition.  Participants will learn a variety of transferable skills from working with these animals, that they can apply in equine and other settings.
