Trails to Healing

HUNT SEAT EQUITATION

An equine (horse) based program for children who have either suffered the loss of a parent, grandparent, sibling, friend, etc. or who are victims of bullying. The program, run by J.L. Apter Memorial Chapels, in conjunction with Morningstar Farm, offers children the opportunity to spend time learning how to groom and ride a horse. It is felt that the bond between an animal and a human is indescribable and, as children who are healing, the relationship may offer them an outlet for grief, not found elsewhere. Please e-mail us at trails2healing@ptd.net or call (973)383-3333 describing the situation the child is going through, along with your name (guardian/parent), contact phone numbers and an e-mail.
