Stepping Forward – A Program for First Responders
Thanks to the Philadelphia FireFighters Local #22, children of our first responder community will be able to participate in a program called “Stepping Forward”. This unique Equine Facilitated Learning hands-on unmounted educational program designed to learn stress coping mechanisms in a fun and supportive learning environment. Stepping Forward program participants will be engaging in various activities at Pegasus while partnering with our amazing therapy horses. This program is specifically designed to help reduce stress levels that a first responder family might experience in daily life while enjoying the benefits of being around our Pegasus therapy horses.
If you are a Local #22 member and would like to speak with a staff member about the benefits of Equine Facilitated Learning for your children or family, please contact teresa@pegasusphilly.org for more information about this ground-breaking program.
