Horses for Heroes

Horses for Heroes is a program that uses horses to support the mental health and well-being of military veterans and first responders. Through stable work, riding, and interaction with horses, participants can develop skills like trust, confidence, and emotional regulation. The program aims to provide a therapeutic environment that promotes healing from trauma, reduces stress, and fosters a sense of community. By engaging with horses, individuals often find a non-judgmental space to express themselves and build resilience, aiding their recovery and reintegration into civilian life.
