 Therapeutic horseback riding, as provided through T.R.A.C.C., is a blend of recreational riding and therapy--a form of physical therapy to provide direct treatment. Individuals with a wide range of special needs (physical, cognitive and/or emotional) find many benefits from therapeutic horseback riding, including:
- increased physical strength and endurance
- balance
- symmetry
- improved self-esteem
- the horse and rider link
And, of course, the opportunity to socialize are some of the benefits of our program. We are a non-profit organization supported by the families of our riders and generous donations of people like you.

Friends of TRACC joined other community organizations at the recent West Pennsboro Community Day event on Saturday, June 6. The event was well attended by folks in the Plainfield and surrounding areas. A big thank you to volunteers Deb Meek and Maxine Sites who answered questions, signed up new volunteers and took advance orders for horse-head carabiners.
