In-Stride With Therapeutic Riding Inc. was founded by Dana Flaherty, who is a breast cancer survivor. Dana works full-time as a teacher and is responsible for coordinating the programs at In-Stride. In case you didn’t know, In-Stride With Therapeutic Riding Inc. helps kids with all types of disabilities. Some kids who come to In-Stride to spend time with the horses struggle with autism, anxiety, depression, and ADHD.

Dana says, “This is really good with kids with autism. Having a job with the horses brings out the best in people. I’ve seen so many kids branch out just after one summer of lessons.” Veterans can also come and ride the horses on Thursdays.

In-Stride has been struggling with funds that would help participants with their lessons, pay the rent, and keep all the animals fed. Dana also hopes to expand their program to therapeutic gardening and help cancer survivors like herself. In-Stride looks forward to raising $260,000.
