HCHY List: Is anyone using the Developmental assets with adolescents and horses

[andy richey]

Hi Everyone,

 =


I have been receiving the HSHY info on a regular basis for quite some time.=
 I am a PhD candidate in the midst of completing my dissertation and with m=
y research interest is in at risk youth and the use of horses as an interve=
ntion strategy utilizing a strengths based perspective or developmental ass=
ets.  My question to the list serve is if anyone knows if this type of prog=
ramming is going on such as part of a ymca program, etc.  I have contacted =
the search institute and they suggested that I pose this question to the gr=
oup.

Thank you in advance for your response.

raphics of my research- it can be wherever.

 as well.
