Windsor-Essex Therapeutic Riding Association

WETRA is committed to improving the quality of life of persons with physical, mental, and emotional challenges through equine related therapy.

Therapeutic riding is an alternative form of therapy using horses to help persons with various disabilities.  Activities involving the horse can be used to assist people with disabilities in achieving physical and mental health, and cognitive, behavioral, social and communication goals.  

WETRA raises revenue by holding various fundraisers, rider fees, writing grants, and donations from the community. It is through endless fundraising efforts that WETRA is able to keep the cost of riding sessions to a minimum. Donations are required to purchase tack, horses and program related equipment.  Also, to maintain and feed horses, and repair and improve buildings. Thank you for supporting a truly unique program.
