HorsePlay Inc.

Horse Play, Inc. is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. We provide recreational riding for special needs children ages 4 through 18. Founded in 1997 with 4 children and borrowed horses, we have now grown to serve 50 plus children, owning 2 horses and leasing 6 others with over 70 community volunteers. Horse Play, Inc. is now managed by a dedicated and trained team of staff and volunteers, headed by our Program Director. Horse Play, Inc. complies with the Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International (PATH) standards and guidelines concerning safety, training equipment and instruction.

We serve children from Coffee and surrounding counties in Tennessee providing these three program options: Therapeutic Riding, Horsemanship, and Hippotherapy.   The goals of the programs are to help students build muscle strength, develop fine motor skills, and grow in independence and self-confidence. These programs help the children develop relationships with horses and people, enhancing their emotional and social skills. We rely on the generosity of our community to continue the program at NO COST to our participants.
