Unbridled Kids Foundation

"As parents of two differently abled boys, we value when healthcare providers intentionally make the effort to be advocates for our children's developmental goals. This goes beyond the clinical aspect of care into a holistic vision for care." - UNBRIDLED PARENT

The Unbridled Kids Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Pea Ridge, Arkansas. 

Established and founded in 2024 by Terrica Weatherford, OTR, and guided under the direction of Emily Zane Vitt, COTA/L, UKF is committed to enhancing the lives of children with special needs. Rooted in the principles of the American Hippotherapy Association (AHA), UKF harnesses the therapeutic power of equine-assisted activities to support physical, occupational, and speech therapies. By integrating the movement of horses into therapy sessions, the organization provides a unique and effective approach to improving motor skills, communication, and overall quality of life for the children it serves.

Unbridled Kids Foundation directly supports Unbridled Pediatric Therapies which began with 1 therapist, no volunteers, and 3 horses. Since then, we have expanded to serve families throughout Northwest Arkansas with a growing team of 7 therapists, 5 volunteers, and 9 horses; approximately serving 60 children weekly.
