HorsePower Therapeutic Riding is a nonprofit organization that provides therapeutic horseback riding programs for children and adults with disabilities, integrating intake, assessment, grooming, tack, groundwork, and riding instruction into individualized lessons. The experience aims to support physical, emotional, cognitive, sensory, and social development by fostering communication and independence through interaction with trained horses, with trained volunteers aiding students as they progress toward riding independently. Based in the Chicago area (St. Charles, Illinois), the organization was founded in 2012 and achieved 501(c)(3) nonprofit status in 2013, expanding its ability to serve more students in need. The core activity combines structured riding sessions with a safe, supportive environment for both disabled and non-disabled riders, emphasizing skill building, bond with the horse, and meaningful participation in a therapeutic setting. A recent update notes participation in a fundraising event linked to a ranch-themed activity, reflecting ongoing community engagement and outreach efforts.
