An Equine Assisted Learning Program
The EAGLE Program
TRI is eager to be launching our Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Experience Program, otherwise known as our EAGLE Program, aimed towards helping our youth better understand their emotions and how their emotions affect their interactions with others. While working alongside TRI's Licensed Mental Health Professionals, Equine Specialists and our amazing herd of horses, participants will work towards improving peer interactions, improving self-esteem, identifying and verbalizing their emotions, and much more!
This program is available for partnering organizations serving youth in the Miami Valley looking to support their clients' social & emotional health in a unique setting.

TRI's 2023 EAGLE Program with
Kids In New Directions
In 2023, TRI was thrilled to partner with Kids In New Directions of Dayton, OH to offer their clients a unique Equine Assisted Learning program during their Summer Break. KIND brought 10 children, Kindergarten through 6th grade, from their program to work on developing their social and emotional learning skills alongside our horses.
KIND's Executive Director shares "Our students all gained a self confidence that couldn't be taught in the classroom - confidence in themselves and their ability to step up to challenges with open hearts and minds, as supportive teammates and peers. Without saying "you have to be nice" or "don't say that", TRI taught them that they are in control of the outcome as long as they are in touch with their emotions.....From the concept, to your incredible staff, there is not a thing about TRI that is not worthy of being recommended time and time again. I saw only good things."
