About EASE

E.A.S.E (Equine Assisted Senior Engagement) is a new program at FENCE aimed at early stage dementia, MCI (mild cognitive impairment), and Parkinson's participants. It is a four-week program consisting of a Spring and Fall session. The goal of this program is to inspire connection and improve the lives of those impacted by dementia, MCI, and Parkinson's through equine engagement. The program focuses on a sensory experience for each student while creating a sense of awareness, confidence, and social connection within a structured and supervised environment. The program takes place at Rosemary's Barn. Participants will spend time and connect with equine animals and other therapy pets in a beautiful, natural setting.
