Comox Valley Therapeutic Riding Society

The Comox Valley Therapeutic Riding Society (CVTRS) has been steadily growing since it began in 1986 with a mission to provide a therapeutic riding program for physically, cognitively and psychologically challenged children and adults using hippotherapy, equine facilitated mental health wellness and adaptive riding. Today, with help of over 60 volunteers, we conduct a professional, nationally accredited therapeutic riding program on Vancouver Island, with 70 clients attending each week, the majority of who are from marginalized populations.

The Comox Valley Therapeutic Riding Society (CVTRS) is dedicated to providing a unique combination of equine related therapy for children and adults with special needs.
