Ride Above Disability Therapeutic Riding Center

Organization Description

Ride Above Disability Therapeutic Riding Center teaches recreational riding to children and adults of all ages with disabilities. Our mission is to Celebrate Ability, Create Hope and Ride Above Challenges. The idea behind Ride Above was to create a place where the entire family unit could come and feel welcome, relax and enjoy their time at the ranch. While special needs riders are our focus, we also teach siblings, parents, and have a military program.
