On Eagles' Wings Therapeutic Horsemanship Center is known as a solitude and saving grace to many of the children and adults who enter. The programming provides an environment for those with disabilities to engage with horses (and other animals!) through equine assisted activities and therapies. Participants include those with cognitive, physical, emotional, and social disabilities and challenges. Executive Director and Founder, Carol Petitto, shares the history of On Eagles' Wings, how her passion became a service for others, why her Center is unique, and the science behind the powerful influence of the horse.
