Equine-assisted activities and therapies centers received more than $132,000 this year from the American Quarter Horse Foundation's America’s Horse Cares program.
A recent study that found therapeutic riding had a positive impact on veterans with post-traumatic stress (PTSD) or traumatic brain injuries is being praised by advocates of equine-assisted therapy.
