Equine Therapy for Veterans at Fieldstone Farm
Non-Profit
Fieldstone Farm is one of the largest and most respected equine
therapy centers in the country serving approximately 1,000 people with
emotional, physical and cognitive disabilities through the therapeutic power of
our horses. Our Veterans Program offers military and their families a place of
support, full of empathy and free of judgment.
Through working with
our highly trained team of therapists, instructors and horses, veterans learn skills
to work through and overcome the struggles and stressors of everyday civilian
life while healing from emotional and physical trauma. Veterans work
alongside a horse to build confidence and connection. Our experienced staff
creates a safe and accepting environment for our veterans and their families.
We see transformational changes in our veterans after bonding with our horses,
including:
·
Improved relationships
·
Greater confidence
·
Increased mindfulness
·
Reduced anxiety
·
Lower blood pressure
All of our veterans
programs are free thanks to generous donations. To learn more about our
