Joyriders is an incorporated non-profit organization and a registered charity. We are governed by a twelve-person volunteer board of directors. In addition, the head instructor, the physiotherapist and the volunteer coordinator are ex-officio members of the board. Our annual general meeting is held in May, and visitors are always welcome. The principal tasks of the board are advocacy and facilitation for the program, and fund raising to help meet the operating and equipment needs. Joyriders is a member of Canadian Therapeutic Riding Association (CanTRA).
