I began volunteering with Stable Hand's Four years ago and wasn't sure what the program was really about. Since than I have learned that Stable Hands provided people with disabilities a rare opportunity to find joy in horsemanship. The smiles and increased self confidence they learn from horses makes the time and work it takes to keep this organization running well worth the effort.
Activities include grooming, saddling, leading and warm up activities on the ground as well as mounted riding lessons in small groups. The benefits of therapeutic horsemanship are improvements in strength, balance, confidence, communication and social skills.
Horses Helping Heroes is a program designed to teach military veterans horsemanship skills. It is built on the foundation of Veteran peer support and utilizes the camaraderie between Servicemen and women to provide a healing environment.
