According to Little Bit, its mission is to improve the bodies, minds and spirits of children and adults with disabilities through equine assisted therapies and activities, and to be an inspiration and educational resource to the therapeutic riding profession, both regionally and nationally. Founded in 1976, Little Bit Therapeutic Riding Center moved to 17-acre Dunmire Stables in 2013.
