Pacific Riding for Developing Abilities (PRDA)

Overview

Pacific Riding for Developing Abilities (PRDA) is a Canadian not-for-profit organization dedicated to providing therapeutic horseback riding services. Founded in 1973, it is recognized as the largest therapeutic equestrian facility in Canada, celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2023[1][2].

Mission and Services

PRDA aims to enhance the quality of life for individuals with diverse abilities through equestrian activities and community involvement. Its programs are designed to support physical, emotional, cognitive, and social development, utilizing the unique therapeutic benefits of horses[3][5]. Services include Equine-Assisted Clinical Counseling, Short-Term Rehabilitation, and Consultation Services[2].

Facility and Operations

The organization operates from a 15-acre facility near Campbell Valley Regional Park in Langley, British Columbia. This site is home to a herd of therapy horses and is equipped with adaptive equipment to cater to a wide range of abilities. PRDA provides individualized therapy for up to 150 riders per week, often requiring a team of trained professionals to support riders with more complex needs[1].

Governance and Membership

PRDA is overseen by a volunteer Board of Governance and is led by an Executive Director. It is a member of the Canadian Therapeutic Riding Association (CanTRA) and is registered as a charitable organization with the Canada Revenue Agency[1][5].

Funding and Support

As a not-for-profit, PRDA relies heavily on fundraising, with over 50% of its operational costs supported through donations and community efforts[2]. Volunteers play a crucial role in supporting the organization, with opportunities available year-round to assist with the horses and riders[2].
