Unlocking Potential:

Join CATS WOW program!

Our WOW program takes place in and out of CATS Ranch. From cooking classes, yoga, art, horsemanship to weekly tour adventures and trips we have something for everyone. We work with OPWDD and self- direction to enhance your participation. 



Horses enhance our WOW program
Horses respond to our cues, encouraging us to develop key executive functioning skills:
– Focus & Attention: Promoting mindfulness through direct engagement.
– Emotional Regulation: Learning to manage one’s feelings in interactions with horses.
– Problem-Solving Skills: Navigating challenges and developing quick thinking in real-time situations.
– Teamwork & Communication: Building relationships and working collaboratively to create harmony.
