The Mission of the Colorado Therapeutic Riding Center
is to change the lives of people with disabilities by promoting their physical, psychological and social well being through equine assisted activities.

In 1980, CTRC started in a park, with three riders, a handful of volunteers and a few borrowed horses. Now, thanks to the unyielding commitment, vision and unwavering support of many wonderful supporters (individuals, foundations, corporations and service clubs) CTRC has a premier facility which allows community members with a wide range of disabilities to benefit from CTRC’s premier Equine Assisted Activities and Therapies (EAAT) services year round. Our EAAT services includes therapeutic riding, equine assisted therapy, ground lessons, and specialized ASD and sibling services.

What it takes to make CTRC happen

1000 Volunteers
15+ Employees

Since 1982 CTRC has held Premier Accreditation status from PATH Intl. (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International) and established itself not only as a center that is deeply rooted in the field of Equine Assisted Activities and Therapies (EAAT) but also on the forefront of innovative and specialized services. While many programs focus on only one aspect of EAAT or one client population, CTRC’s solid foundation allows us to expand our services to an exceptionally wide range of disabilities including but not limited to Cerebral Palsy, ALS, Multiple Sclerosis, Spina Bifida, Traumatic Brain Injury, Stroke, Developmental Delays, Autism, Aspergers, Dementia and Visual Impairment.
