I reside in Dunmore. I serve as the clinical director for the Pocono Equestrian Center which is a therapeutic equine program for children with autism/developmental challenges. This program may be a positive way for you to connect with other parents as well as being a positive experience for your child. The program currently utilizes a farm in Factoryville but is hoping to soon expand to having its own facility. Their website is at poconoequestrian.org
In addition, I am holding seminars at Keystone College, I can provide information to anyone who may be interested in attending. The first is entitled "Entering Their Imaginative World" and will be held Sat. Nov 19th at 6pm. You can e-mail me at DLEdmunds@poconoequestrian.org for more info. I also serve as a therapist for a community based program and am involved in educational consultation and advocacy. Feel free to contact me if I can be of any help to you.

We actually were in that area quite a bit at U of Scranton and Kings College that yr. Plus, I know many people who went to Baptist Bible College. So, yes i am familure with that area. But unfortunatly, its about 2 1/2 hours away from Willow grove. We are close to Philly in Montgomery County. We are actually located 2 mins from Bucks County and 15 mins from Philly, just off the turnpike. I don't know anyone else on this board from your area though. But we arent that far. Tammy hey yeah you aren't too far i don't live in Scranton but i live like 45 minutes from there :) |
