Programs for Veterans
Benefits of Equine Assisted Services for Veterans
High Hopes’ programs for Veterans focus on interactions between the horse and the individual, allowing for activities that build personal decision-making skills. The welcoming, outdoor environment of our 120-acre facility provides a healing and stress-relieving venue. Most High Hopes’ Veterans programs are small groups, unmounted activities, 6-8 weeks in length, and offered on a rotating basis throughout the year. Our goal is to provide services that meet varied and individual needs.
