The We'll Take You There Program combines
the Adoption boot Camp Program (disadvantage dogs
are rescued from shelters and paired with
disadvantaged children. the children then
train the dogs in basic obedience and get them ready
for adoption. In essence the children are
helping the dogs learn skills that will allow them
to function in a home.) and Equine Assisted Learning
Program (EAL is an emerging treatment that utilizes
horse handling activities to generate powerful
therapeutic metaphors. The children gain
insight into their fears, habits, and unconscious
ways of relating. As issues arise with the equine
setting students have opportunities to work toward
understanding and healing of these issues.)
