Dr. Ghislani Durant, MD, PhD, pioneered medical findings supporting the role of horses as therapeutic to human conditions in his classic 1878 book, Horse-Back Riding: From a Medical Point of View. Since 1994, our all-volunteer nonprofit educational organization, Quest for Excellence, has been applauded as the vanguard of cutting-edge, sometimes controversial yet scientific research supported professional continuing education events.
We are wrapping up our research of equine assisted therapy and related services and will be offering a presentation on this topic in the near future. It will specifically address California licensed senior care, dependent adult care and youth and child care professionals.
For now, I hope you will consider supporting an upcoming fundraising event: Chukkers for Children.
