About Us
Hearts & Hooves' mission is to provide a unique service to people of all ages in Edmonton and surrounding areas who can benefit from a Miniature Equine Guided Assisted Therapy visit. We bring the horses indoors to visit people at hospitals, schools, care centers, or in the homes of those who may be elderly, terminally ill, and medically fragile.
We also visit individuals and school programs for those who may be emotionally and mentally ill, the mildly, moderately, and severely challenged, and those who are learning and/or physically challenged.

We facilitate Day Programs at the farm for people of all ages who can benefit from learning through the love of a horse. The Day Programs are oriented towards teaching Life Skills and fostering Community Involvement by involving the participants in facilitating visitations, and providing the opportunity to assist with the care of the miniature horses. We intend to benefit those enrolled in our Day Programs, their staff, and families.
Hearts & Hooves Initiatives also include specialized services for the following programs.
