Our Program is dedicated and designed to support and empower military personnel by harnessing the unique and therapeutic bond between humans and horses. Recognizing many challenges, this program offers a safe, inclusive space for healing, growth, and connection.

This program is specifically tailored to address the physical, emotional, and psychological needs of veterans, including those coping with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, and physical injuries. Participants engage in a range of equine-assisted activities, such as horseback riding, grooming, and groundwork, that focus on educational and personal development goals. These interactions foster critical life skills like leadership, problem-solving, and teamwork. We are working with the Martinez VA and Concord Veterans Group. All others are welcome.
