Horses interact during a session

A quiet moment during a session.

Welcome to PBJ Connections

PBJ Connections helps youths build emotional awareness and relate how they are feeling to how they are behaving. Our treatment program uses horses to help clients with emotional growth and learning. We guide our clients through connecting how they are relating to their world with how they are relating to the horses.

Some of our clients present with behavior issues and some have mental health diagnoses. In all cases, the horses can help with healing.

Our Focus is simple. PBJ Connections works to provide emotional healing for at-risk youth and families through equine-assisted activities.

"I got involved in PBJ Connections as a way to help children achieve their fullest potential in life. As a father of three children, I know of the struggles and uncertainty that many kids have today. PBJ Connections is a great way for at risk youths to understand who they are and help them realize what they can be in life. The interaction with the horses allows them to learn more about themselves and how they interact with others." - John Lackey - Past Board President
