CHAPS stands for Children, Horses, and Adults in PartnerShip because we work as a team to provide equine assisted recreational therapy to Sheridan and Johnson county residents.
CHAPS accepts client applications from agencies, educators, health care Professionals, and individuals.
Our Therapy Instructors are currently in the process of becoming registered level instructors through the North American Riding for the Handicapped Association (NARHA). Our Executive Director holds a BA Degree in Equine Science and a Masters in Nonprofit Management. Our staff follows the rules and guidelines set forth by the North American Riding for the Handicapped Association (NARHA) and our goal is to have each instructor certified at the registered level by Fall, 2006.
CHAPS has an indoor and outdoor arena for riding, as well as access to state land trails. Our barn features radient heat in the floor, 5 stalls, feed room and tack room, grooming areas, and a heated office is scheduled for construction.
