Welfare Association School: Specially-abled students from Army Women’s Welfare Association School, Jabalpur, enjoyed close encounters with trained military horses, gaining confidence and building emotional resilience during a special interaction and therapy session, a Defence Ministry official said on Thursday.
Under the theme ‘Healingthroughconnection, Strengththroughcompassion’, a special equine interaction and therapy session was conducted for children of AWWA School at 1 MP Remount & Veterinary Sqn NCC, with a focused emphasis on the well-being and emotional development of specially abled students, said the official from the Indian Army’s Central Command in a statement.
