• AHEAD (Accelerated Habilitation Education And Development) With Horses Inc is a non-profit developmental therapeutic vaulting program that has been serving children with multiple and severe disabilities since 1968. AWH’s mission is to: Maximize potential of disabled/disadvantaged/special-needs children providing developmental therapy, education and recreation through horses and the environment, with measurable improvement physically, mentally, socially and/or emotionally resulting in increased self-sufficiency and the ability to lead better and more independent and productive lives capable of contributing to society.

Our main facility is in Shadow Hills, CA and we have a mobile program that goes to Brentwood, CA once a week. We normally take children 12 and under with all types of disabilities, including: autism spectrum disorder, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, developmental delays, chromosome disorders, and many more.
