Turning Point Ranch Association

Mobile mini-dementia patients rebuild mobility and communication skills through structured programming with a mini horse at the nursing home or assisted living center where they reside. School children learn about horses and interact with a mini horse to reinforce academic and social skills at schools. Families recovering from domestic violence work through trauma in guided interactions with mini horses.

Literacy programming - based on first grade level books this program offers reading support to two title one schools in stillwater and has had a significant impact on reading levels after 15 years of field trips where students read to horses and do fifteen other equine related activities.
