Maryland Therapeutic Riding (MTR) is a non-profit organization located between Baltimore and Annapolis, Maryland on a beautiful 25-acre farm. With the help of hundreds of volunteers and generous community contributors, MTR strives to improve the lives of special needs riders of all ages using a high quality program.

Therapeutic Riding is a growing and widely-accepted treatment for rehabilitating a range of physical, mental, and emotional disabilities. Conditions served include: cerebral palsy, spina bifida, neuromuscular disorders, post-traumatic brain injury, autism, ADHD, and cognitive disorders. Riders experience increased self-confidence and improvement in strength, balance, coordination, attention span, language and social skills.

Founded in 1996, MTR's year-round program includes both traditional Therapeutic Riding as well as Hippotherapy. Horses for Heroes is a specialty program for active duty U.S. military wounded warriors. Horses for Hope is a specialty program for women in need of emotional assistance. Instructor, hippotherapy and recreational riding training is also offered. MTR is a Premier Operating Center accredited by the North American Riding for the Handicapped Association (NARHA) as well as a Britsh Horse Society accredited program.
