This fall, our staff trained with Scott, from A Hero for Life, to review life-saving skills and stay prepared for
emergencies! 🚑💙

Training included infant, pediatric, and adult CPR , general first aid, AED, and the Heimlich maneuver. Throughout the year, our team also participates in ongoing education to stay up to date on best practices in services, safety, and horsemanship!
🐴💫

Office manager Posey was even checking out the fun and was very concerned for the CPR manikins. 🐶

We are looking to add two AED units to our program to increase cardiac safety for our riders, surfers, volunteers, and families; each unit runs about $1,500 to $2,000, and if you are interested in sponsoring this life-saving equipment please comment below or reach out to jillian@surfandturftherapy.org or call the office 949-312-7227 ext 0.

“I’m thankful for the friendships Surf & Turf has brought into my life. My coworkers have become the people I decorate for holidays with, call when I’m nervous, and genuinely miss when I’m not at work.

I’m thankful that I get to go to a job I truly love every single day. I always knew I couldn’t be happy without work that felt meaningful, and I’m grateful to have finally found that here. “ - Danielle

🥹 Thank you Danielle for being so committed to this work. It is so clear that you genuinely love and care for this program and all the people who are a part of it!

Surfing… in Scotland? You bet! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🌊

Dr. Jillian & MJ kicked off Day 1 of the Conference at - connecting with incredible organizations, sharing stories, learning and catching waves (yes, in a pool!).

Special shout out to for the handwritten and INCREDIBLY thoughtful, personal welcome notes. ❤️ Those take so much time and are a perfect example of just how fantastic, kind and supportive this really community is.

We’re stoked about how surf therapy keeps expanding - even to places away from the coast.
