From the Desk of Jamie Blazevich - Training Coordinator

July 12, 2007 - At The Community Partnership, we are always looking for ways to collaborate with other great organizations in our area that share in our mission.
In the next several months, we’re collaborating with Serenity Farms to bring two very unique and fun interactive training opportunities. Serenity Farms is a non-profit organization that provides a variety of therapies to people with physical and mental challenges through the aid of horses, dogs and other animals. The farm’s founder Debra DeHoff is a licensed counselor and avid horse woman. She started the farm in 2001 with just an idea and handful of committed volunteers. Now six successful years later she is hoping to grow the organization to a point where she can offer the group’s services at two other locations. Part of those services includes providing educational workshops to teachers, social workers, counselors, etc.
Debra, along with Kelly Garza who is a Licensed Social Worker, will provide two of their trainings.
The trainings will be interactive with horses; however, there will be no riding involved.
