Lesson Sponsorship

Picture
The lesson programs at Southern Vermont Therapeutic Riding Center are overseen by Executive Director Amber Thibodeau, a PATH Int'l. Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor. Classes are customized to suit the needs of the riders. All lessons are supervised by a PATH Int'l. certified instructor with the help of trained volunteers.

Lesson plans generally cover 8-10 weekly sessions, and we operate year-round. With your help, we can offer the benefits of these lessons to more children and adults with physical, emotional or cognitive needs in the Southern Vermont area who would not otherwise be able to participate.

Let us know if you can help underwrite a program for one individual or a group. 

Please call us at 802-221 4409 or by email to amber.sovtrc@gmail.com.


                                                                                    Your continued support is greatly appreciated.
