People are the Heart of our Programs
Therapeutic Horseback Riding
High Point Academy provides equine assisted therapy
for children and adults with physical, cognitive and learning disabilities.
The benefits include strengthening muscles, increasing range of
motion and developing positive self esteem. In addition to enhancing
the physical, emotional and social well being of our students, it
is great fun! Able-bodied lessons are also available.
Education
Educational programs are being developed in Effective
Communication, Health, Independent Living, Leadership, Mentoring,
Nutrition, Parenting, Wellness and At Risk Youth Guidance. Future
goals include providing workshops for instructor certification and
continued education.
Support Groups
We plan to build community through various support groups
for individuals and family members. Encouraging one another, sharing
knowledge and resources provides mutual benefits.
Volunteer Training
Volunteers are the heart and soul of our programs. We
train our volunteer team in order to provide a professional, safety
conscious environment where everyone wins. You can make a difference
by contributing your unique abilities and inspiring others to reach
greater heights!
