Our model connects horsemanship with life skills in a safety-first environment. This adaptive program includes lessons in basic riding, dressage, western and jumping. We served 90-110 clients per week, about 50 percent of whom were children, and 3 percent of whom were Veterans. Approximately 70 percent of our clients self-identify as having a physical, cognitive, or emotional diagnosis. In our Equestrian Vaulting Program, clients of all abilities learn how to combine gymnastics and dance in partnership while atop a moving horse. We accentuate partnership with the horse, teammates, longueur, and coach. We served 6-10 clients a week, all of whom were children. Approximately, 50 percent of these clients self-identify as having a diagnosis.In our Driving Program, clients learn to control an equine from the seat of a cart or carriage. Driving allows individuals of all abilities, even those who would not be able to participate in Riding or Vaulting, to be able to enjoy the freedom of moving with a horse. We served 1 youth client, sent a staff member to be certified, and worked to train multiple equines to begin our program in earnest in the Summer of 2018.Weekly sessions will be held year round, with the exception of 1 or 2 weeks of break at the end of each quarterly session. 57483 83345 Clinical Services (Rehabilitative Services and Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy)Our Rehabilitative Services (Hippotherapy) Program is therapy for people with physical and developmental challenges. Our licensed and highly trained therapists provide Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Speech and Language Pathology. Each clinician uses the uniquely therapeutic and challenging movement of the horse to add to the other benefits and modalities of their field of expertise. We served 25-30 clients each week, 90 percent of whom were children. Our Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy (EFP) is therapy for personal growth and treatment for those with mental health diagnoses. Sessions are available for adults, adolescents, and children, which can take place in an individual, family, or group therapy setting. We served 10-15 clients per week, about 50 percent of whom were children, and 10 percent of whom were Veterans.Weekly sessions are held year round, with the exception of 1 or 2 weeks of break at the end of each quarterly session. 30393 11577 Personal Development (Volunteer, Vocational, Equine Facilitated Learning)Our Volunteer Program provides opportunities for everyone over the age of 12 to give back to our organization and learn new skills. We have between 100 and 150 volunteers per week and about 300 total individuals throughout the year. These volunteers help with our clinical services, inclusive equestrian sports and assist with caring for our herd of therapy horses and ponies. Our Vocational Training Program provides paid internships specifically designed for clients who may otherwise have difficulties gaining regular employment to benefit from real-life work experience. Each intern works up to 10 hours per week and is paid minimum wage. Each intern receives individualized and personalized learning plans that focus on their particular needs and interest. We served 3 individuals, 18-24 years old, all three of which continued in our volunteer program after completing their internship. Equine Facilitated Learning (EFL) is an experiential learning approach that promotes the development of life skills for educational, professional and personal goals through equine-assisted activities. We provided one time EFL experiences and 4-6 week curriculum based EFL sessions to clients. Some of the learning included communication, body language, group dynamics and problem solving. We provided almost 100 client hours of EFL in the 2016-2017 year. 704916 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false true false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false true 4 0 true 37 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 8 8 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true false false true false false OR X Robin Adams 5035902959 23839 SW Daniel Rd Beaverton OR 97078 Charles Adams Board Chair 6.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Robin Adams Treasurer 12.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Rena Snyder Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Robin Cook Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Julie Baugh Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Melody Finn Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Frank Dufay Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Patricia Koon Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jason Burdge Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 55195 0 0 55195 0 false false false 0 124545 911197 586729 1035742 Program fees 411992 411992 411992 0 0 0 8100 8100 8100 8100 1000 9658 -8658 -8658 -8658 28050 124545 29942 -1892 0 0 Misc income 407 407 407 1445691 411434 407 0 0 0 0 55196 33117 16559 5520 0 402415 343909 19499 39007 0 12366 10189 974 1203 39045 31357 2734 4954 0 0 0 0 0 0 17173 16824 349 0 19275 11517 7179 579 0 0 30441 25570 2131 2740 9178 9147 31 0 0 7410 7410 0 15347 12645 1209 1493 18530 15850 1199 1481 Horse care and supplies 149913 148834 1079 Client Assistance 27210 27210 Fundraising events 25461 578 24883 Bank fees 11235 9617 150 1468 1142 1142 841337 704916 51665 84756 20539 10715 0 0 14628 69819 0 0 89500 0 0 1832 0 2013735 69792 190247 1943943 0 0 0 0 0 316746 2024477 44493 253590 13267 29247 859440 300 58060 1142277 X 152888 882200 105798 258686 882200 316746 2024477 604354 19160 X true X false false false X 111276 129815 140092 459107 1089102 1929392 343005 348268 359598 311744 411992 1774607 33579 41059 38156 49969 162763 0 0 487860 519142 537846 820820 1501094 3866762 70232 70232 0 70232 70232 3796530 0 0 0 0 487860 519142 537846 820820 1501094 3866762 0.98180 1.00000 0.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 468480 468480 198338 53960 144378 1346917 15832 1331085 1943943 1894764 419131 29942 449073 1445691 1445691 1271250 399971 29942 429913 841337 841337 Part XI, Line 2d: Other revenue amounts included in F/S but not included on form 990 Fundraising expenses $29942 Part XII, Line 2d: Other expenses and losses per audited F/S Fundraising expenses $29942 false Raise the Barn 118952 92512 26440 26990 Round Up 33643 32033 1610 2952 152595 124545 28050 29942 29942 -1892 X 1 468480 Appraisal X Horse 1 80000 Appraisal X Animals 5 11499 FMV X Riding equip 1 25050 FMV X Office equip 1 1700 FMV false false false Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process The 990 is reviwed by the Board prior to filing Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts All directors must disclose potential conflicts of interest Form 990, Part VI, Line 19: Other Organization Documents Publicly Available Governing documents and financial information is available upon request
