The Children’s Ranch Foundation offers an extracurricular animal caretaking program for children, teens, and young adults of all abilities, including those with learning, social/emotional, and developmental challenges. Students do not ride horses; instead, they care for horses, rabbits, chickens, and guinea pigs through activities like grooming, mucking, feeding, leading, bathing, and socializing. The program is designed by consultants in therapeutic horsemanship, occupational therapy, behavioral therapy, and special education, and lessons are taught by community instructors with attention to each student’s needs. The site says children age 7 and younger are referred to Interwoven, an outpatient clinic at The Children’s Ranch that offers community lessons in animal caretaking and animal-assisted occupational therapy.
