Trauma & Violence PREVENTION PROGRAM
Our Trauma and Violence Prevention Program is for individuals, groups and/or families impacted by violence, trauma, or harm. Our trauma-informed programming is customized to meet the unique goals of each group. Activities incorporate nature and/or animals and offer opportunities to build relationships, improve self-awareness, and explore self-empowerment in a safe and therapeutic setting. Examples of activities include goat walks and handling, team building in nature, mindfulness exercises, and fire pit activities that help build on improving coping and relationships.

All abilities ramble
A free, nature-based somatic experience for people with intellectual or developmental disabilities, their friends and families of any age. The RAMble gives community members the opportunity to interact with our therapy staff and goats providing opportunities to learn, practice skills and engage with others. The RAMble is also the Philadelphia area’s only free accessible animal-based therapy program where families can get connected to resources and find friends who understand in a judgment-free zone. Families can work 1:1 with a team for 30 minutes and also join the goats and staff on a farm tour. Check out our published research about the RAMble by clicking here.
Thanks to generous support from our community and the Human Animal Alliance, the RAMble is officially BACK!

small group wellness & skill building
Curated programming for individuals and groups needing intensive multimodal support in addressing complex behavioral, developmental or health care challenges. We work with organizations and groups to design goal-oriented programming that focuses on growth, connection, and expression, and is suited for a range of different abilities and strengths.
We have helped participants strengthen functional skills, explore vocational skill-building, cultivate a mind-body connection and increase social-emotional learning. Some of our school and community partners have included medically complex classrooms, Widener & HMS School, Overbrook School for the Blind, PA School for the Deaf, and Inglis House.
