Equine Assisted Services for Veterans
Equine Assisted Services for Veterans
Our Equine Assisted Healing programs for veterans provide a strengths-based, hands-on body, mind, and spirit form of personal development that utilizes engagement with horses to help participants release trauma, reconnect with themselves, and create change in their lives.
In combination with our skilled treatment team, our equines offer participants unique opportunities to gain perspective, increase resilience and overcome obstacles. Sessions are designed to parallel life experiences and strengthen participants ability to navigate day to day challenges, as well as traumatic stressors.
Our facilitators help participants understand the non-judgmental, unbiased feedback provided by our horses and donkeys so they can learn directly about themselves, and gain information to reduce stress, improve focus and strengthen relationship skills.

The transition from warrior to civilian is a demanding process and living with Post Traumatic Stress, MST, mTBI and other injuries make it exponentially difficult.
