Program accomplishments

  • The organization provides therapeutic riding programs to serve over 176 children and adults, ranging in age from 4 to 94. The equine program gives the experience to foster children and at risk youth as well. MTRA also serves military and underserved children with the chance to be involved in activities that would otherwise be unattainable to them. Marion Therapeutic Riding Association provides therapeutic horseback riding and equine assisted learning activities for children and adults living with physical, emotional, and cognitive challenges in our community. As an approved provider through some health insurance companies, individuals may see if our services are covered through insurance. Some programming is provided at no cost for qualified participants through grants and fundraising, and we now offer peer to peer fundraising campaigns that make fundraising for a specific person easily accessible.
