HALTER FAST FACTS:

• HALTER provides services to children who have challenges each week of service and to over 300 children in the region, and some from across the state, each year

• HALTER provides services to children who have physical, cognitive, emotional/behavioral conditions; most of our children have more than one medical/cognitive/emotional condition

• Most of our children receive special education

• EVERY child who participates at HALTER depends on the generosity of our donors because the fees that are charged do not cover the cost of providing the services

• Three volunteers are needed for EACH participant, on average

• HALTER maintains 12 horses/ponies

• All horses/ponies go through specialized assessment and training

• Many horses are on long-term “free-leases”

• HALTER was established in 1987!
