I would like to start off by saying that I could not have asked for a better internship experience.  My experience at RHR was outstanding.  I know that not every student is fortunate enough to obtain an internship that provides as much hands-on experience as RHR, but I wish that every student could.  I was not too familiar with hippotherapy prior to my time at RHR.  I was amazed to see how much it helped each child from body awareness, muscle strength, oral motor function, to even the child’s self-confidence, it was truly amazing!
Since the end of my internship in December 2016, I have already gone back to volunteer a few times.  I was also able to bring a few friends along to volunteer and share in my experience.  As I enter the “real world”, having this internship experience was good for me to start out as a professional.  I am truly thankful I got to work with the RHR staff; they are truly passionate about the work they do.  I cannot say enough wonderful things about them.  I look forward to coming back as a volunteer whenever I have a chance, especially to see my buddy Small Fry!
