The youth play an important role in our society in which people with special needs are some of the most vulnerable. Each community takes measures to support people with special needs among which central are the different types of therapies. For various conditions equine-assisted therapy (EAT) has proven to bring a lot of improvements. This type of therapy has very positive effects on the youngest among us. On the other hand, its format allows for young people and young professionals to take part in it and make their own impact for the community. To provide more practical information on the matter a group of organizations– Paint and Quarter Horse Foundation Bulgaria, Association For You, Quality Education for Sustainable Social Transformation, and Creativi108, all interested in the topic created the project Youth in Equine-Assisted Therapy (YEAT) and the YEAT Guidelines.
