Equine-Assisted Learning (EAL) Programs
Promise Landing Farm Equine-Assisted Learning (EAL) Programs focus on teaching horsemanship skills while simultaneously building essential life skills such as communication, problem-solving, and emotional regulation. Our EAL sessions provide a unique, hands-on learning experience in a supportive and inclusive environment. Our partcipants show personal growth that is truly inspiring.
EAL Program Benefits
Certified Facilitators
Our facilitators are certified Equine Specialists in Mental Health and Learning (ESMHLs) through PATH International. This ensures that each program is tailored to meet the unique needs and goals of every participant. Whether it's a one-time session or an ongoing series, our EAL programs are designed to foster personal growth and development.
Individual & Group Programs
In addition to individual participants, we collaborate with a variety of partner organizations, including Melwood, the Jude House, and Maryland Family Resource, to offer group programs. These partnerships allow us to extend our reach and impact, helping more people experience the therapeutic benefits of working with horses.
Develop Life Skills
Our EAL Programs are designed to promote personal growth and development by teaching essential life skills such as communication, problem-solving, and emotional regulation. Through hands-on interaction with horses, participants gain confidence, build self-awareness, and learn to navigate challenges effectively. These experiences foster resilience and empathy, empowering individuals to apply these skills in their everyday lives.
