Equine Assisted Programs Club
About
The Purdue Equine Assisted Programs club, or PEAP, is a forum for students interested in the principles of equine assisted programs (EAPs), through the human-animal bond. EAPs use the characteristics of equines to aid in the learning and development of people with diverse needs. The interdisciplinary nature of EAPs encourages interest in areas including animal and veterinary science, biomechanics, kinesiology, animal welfare, business management, psychology, and special education.
Our mission is to promote fellowship among EAP enthusiasts, to promote excellence and service of EAPs in the area and across the country, and to become active in other horse-related events within the interest of the club members, including a working dedication to encourage the longevity of horse programs at Purdue.
