In this episode Ken talks with the founder and executive director of Horse SenseAbility, Polly Kornblith. Polly got her start with the therapeutic use of animals by utilizing therapy dogs with adolescent males in a residential facility. From there grew her current program of horseback riding and care for horses with children, adolescents’ and young adults who have experienced grief, loss, and/or trauma. While many equestrian programs aid those with physical or cognitive issues, Horse SenseAbility addresses the mental health needs. An enlightening conversation that upon reflection makes “sense”.
