Freedom Strides
Empowering veterans through equine-assisted mental health therapy. Rebuild trust, resilience, and community—one stride at a time.
About Freedom Strides
Freedom Strides is dedicated to empowering veterans through equine-assisted mental health therapy, creating a safe and supportive environment where healing, connection, and personal growth flourish. By working with trained therapy horses, veterans build trust, develop essential coping skills, and rediscover their sense of purpose after service. Our mission is to foster emotional resilience, confidence, and a renewed sense of community for those who have served our nation.
Through structured equine-assisted therapy sessions, peer support groups, and ongoing alumni programs, participants experience meaningful connections with both horses and fellow veterans. We also offer family and community events to support reintegration and strengthen relationships. Every interaction is thoughtfully designed to promote calmness, trust, and long-term well-being, ensuring veterans have a continued path toward empowerment and connection with their communities.
