Overview of our programs involved with providing EAS to individuals with special needs:
     With PATH/EAGALA certified staff, Dream Catcher of Los Angeles offers:
     
     (1.) THERAPEUTIC HORSEMANSHIP SERVICES
     Riding and groundwork conducted by PATH certified staff working with veterans, children, teens and adults with a wide range of abilities and disabilities including autism, cerebral palsy, chronic pain/MS, trauma and emotional difficulties. Dream Catcher Los Angeles adapts its programs to each individual's needs, enabling our riders to benefit physically, emotionally, socially and cognitively. The program focuses on forming a partnership between horse and rider, leading to social, physical, psychological, cognitive and educational benefits unique to equestrian therapy:
     Social - participants experience social interactions with the horses, therapists, instructors, other students and volunteers;
     Physical - participants benefit from the horses gait, with the potential for increased strength and agility, improved balance and posture, better circulation, respiration and metabolism, normalizing of muscle tone, reduced spasticity, and improved motor skills, reflexes, coordination, and range of motion;
     Psychological - benefits can include an increase in recreation, fun, empowerment, social interactions, independence, improved self-image, increased attention span and motivation, self-discipline, risk-taking, patience and trust;
     Cognitive - benefits may include sequencing, hand-eye coordination, multi-tasking, sensory integration, left/right discrimination, motion planning, patterning, and visual/spatial perception; education occurs through play as riders learn to identify colors, numbers, shapes and animals; and finally,
     Bringing riders and horses together fosters friendships, respect for others and for animals, love for animals, personal bonds, increased life experience and simple enjoyment. Those who benefit: Cerebral Palsy, ADD/ADHD, PTSD, Down Syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Developmental Delays, Paraplegia, Traumatic brain injury, Multiple sclerosis, Muscular dystrophy, Reactive Attachment Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Mental Retardation, Hearing impairments, Visual impairments, spinal cord injuries, OCD. Our youngest rider is 3 years old, and our oldest was a veterans that is 98!
     
     (2.) EQUINE INTERACTIVE THERAPY SERVICES Psychotherapy/Counseling, Mental Health, involves a highly effective team consisting of a licensed clinical professional, a PATH INT’L or EAGALA certified equine specialist, and trained horses have been shown to be effective in treating a variety of mental health and human development needs such as behavioral issues, attention deficit disorder, substance abuse, eating disorders, abuse issues, depression, anxiety, anger management, conflict resolution, relationship problems and communications. EAAT is experiential in nature. Participants learn about themselves by participating in activities with horses and then discussing feelings, behaviors and patterns.
     
     (3.) EQUINE INTERACTIVE LEARNING SERVICES also known as Equine Assisted/Facilitated Learning (EAL, EFL): Self-improvement, Wellness, Team Building, and/or Personal or Professional Coaching. Our PATH and EAGALA certified staff helps individuals better understand themselves and others through participation in activities with the horses followed by a discussion of how their feelings, behaviors and patterns relate to their “real life.”
     For example, a horse’s size alone offers a unique opportunity for participants to overcome fear and develop self-confidence. Accomplishing a task involving a horse in spite of one’s fears creates confidence and provides for wonderful metaphors for dealing with intimidating and challenging situations that arise in daily life.
     As social animals with distinct personalities, attitudes and moods, horses also have the ability to mirror exactly what human body language is telling them. Thus participants who complain that a horse is stubborn or antagonistic learn that if they change their own behavior the horse responds differently.
     Just by being themselves, our horses play a critical role by fostering teamwork, improving problem-solving skills, enhancing leadership and communication abilities, increasing self-confidence, and building healthier relationships. EAP & EAL builds skills in the following areas: Problem Solving, Work Ethic, Personal Responsibility, Teamwork, Confidence, Attitude, Emotional Growth, and Relationship Building. EAL and EAP are often used for clients that are experiencing the following: Personal issues, ADHD, PTSD, PDD, juvenile delinquency, Social anxiety or shyness, Anxiety, Trauma, Anger and acting out, Grief and loss, Poor self-esteem, Substance abuse recovery, Communication, Interpersonal relationships, Stress, Burnout, terminal illness, team building.
     
     (4) Vocational Learning: Dream Catcher has worked with such programs as: Cole Vocational, the Mentor Network, Integrated Life Social Vocational Services and CIP- College Internship Program where we have taught students with special needs taking College Courses. We provided Vocational training, Equine Assisted Psychotherapy and Equine Assisted Learning as part of their Curriculum. We were awarded Best Community Program 2 years in a row!
     
     (5) Self-improvement, Wellness, Team Building, and/or Personal or Professional Coaching- Dream Catcher has provided, in conjunction with our EAP/EFP program Team Building and Professional coaching. Utilizing a PATH INT'L Instructor and an Advanced EAGALA Mental Health practitioner, Dream Catcher provides Businesses, Psychotherapists, and groups with Self-Improvement, Team Building and Coaching.
     
     (6) Veterans Program: Dream Catcher of L.A. Therapeutic Riding Centers' Horses for Forces has partnered with PATH, International and their Equine Services for Heroes program. This program strives to assist military personnel and veterans through our available services.
     “Equine-assisted activity and therapy programs are tailored to address specific issues faced by wounded and traumatized military personnel, while also providing a supportive and therapeutic environment for their families and loved ones."
     Currently, Dream Catcher L.A. offers:
     Ground lessons (grooming, tacking, horse care, etc.) Natural Horsemanship i.e. Parelli games
     Recreational / leisure riding skills
     Sports riding - setting goals for developing riding skills (may include competitions)

Community Outreach and/or Public Education:
Overview of our programs involved with providing community outreach and/or public education programs involving horses:
     Dream Catcher of Los Angeles actively engages in community outreach throughout the year.
     Joan Blank, Executive Director of Dream Catcher of L.A., is a champion for our program and our horses. Always looking for new educational opportunities, Joan brings her expertise and enthusiasm to local High Schools and colleges to recruit volunteers, particularly among students planning careers in mental and public health, psychology, kinesthesiology, Occupational, Speech and Physical therapists, nursing, or for community service. Dream Catcher of L.A. also participates as an exhibitor at the Abilities Expo Los Angeles. At this year’s Expo, Dream Catcher introduced our program and our miniature horses Studly and Carmelina to adults and children, some of whom had never had contact with horses. Our volunteers and staff educated the public about the benefits of EAAT and witnessed the simple joy of meeting our star minis.
     Dream Catcher of L.A. also holds public events at its facility including renowned guest speakers, clinics, horse shows, and training seminars. Each event allows the general public to meet and interact with equestrian experts and our horses. Most of our events are advertised on social media and invite the public to participate free of charge. DCLA has held open houses sponsored by our Councilmember Al Austin 11. He presented us with an award for his district. Dream Catcher also was given an award by Former California Senator Lara. Dream Catcher of L.A. encourages the community to visit, volunteer and to learn how horses enrich our lives.
     Reaching out to our nation’s veterans is a core element of our community program. Horses for Forces allows all veterans to engage with horses free of charge. In an effort to give back to those that give the country their all, Dream Catcher of L.A. invites veterans to come and learn with our program. The amazing process from the first meet and greet with a horse, learning to groom and appreciating how the equine mind works makes this program fun as well as very successful. It has been a privilege for Dream Catcher to welcome veterans and teach them with our wonderful horses. DCLA has worked with West Los Angeles VA (one of the biggest in the nation), Long Beach VA, halfway houses, and Veterans’ Court.
     These are just a few examples of how Dream Catcher of L.A. interacts with the community. We are always looking for new ways to educate, engage and excite the public about our program and horses in general.

She said she could contact an associate that was teaching at an Equine Pre-vet program in Pomona, CA.
