Our Mission:Prospect Mountain, a 501(c)(3) non profit organization, was formed to enhance the lives of persons with Physical, Intellectual or Psychological challenges. We provide Equine Assisted Programs customized to meet the objectives of each individual's needs.
All riders benefit from increased self-esteem,empowerment, trust, impulse control, self confidence and the relationships they build with peers, horses, volunteers and staff.
Safety is PARAMOUNT!! All riders do wear helmets when on horseback.
The center depends on fund raising and contributions from outside sources to enable us to meet the needs of all of our students.

VOLUNTEERS
Welcome to PROSPECT MOUNTAIN
Therapeutic Riding Center, member of the North American Riding for the
Handicapped Association. Working within the atmosphere of an old
Mining Town, we strive to find VALUE in ALL ABILITIES.
Therapeutic riding is the core of our program. Certified instructors, with trained volunteers, assist riders to achieve, goals, horsemanship skills, and establish a special bond with their horses.
We promote Trust, Impulse Control,Self confidence and Relation -ship building through the natural consequences of the horse. The relationship that occurs between a rider and their horse can help overcome a riders debilitating fears. As a rider learns that they have control of a horse, they can begin to learn that they can take control of themselves.
Riding also feeds the heart. All riders benefit from increased self-esteem, empowerment, and relationships they build with peers, horses, volunteers and staff.
