EquiCenter offers a variety of FREE programs to help Veterans find a sense of peace and purpose in our supportive environment. Programs include Mission Mustang, Cooking with Heroes, and a variety of therapeutic horticulture and farming activities. Your support of this challenge will allow us to continue to make a positive impact on the lives of Veterans in our community and raise awareness of this national tragedy. 100% of the proceeds from the event go directly to EquiCenter’s Veteran programs that support their very specialized needs.
Words From Our Veteran Participants:
"EquiCenter is like a family for me, it's like coming home. It makes me feel like I am a part of something, a part of a team. It has helped me to embrace challenges in my life, look at things from a different perspective, and calm down." - Nyeshia, U.S. Navy
"I know I was going down a dark road. To possibly being suicidal. Having these horses now, it's not even a thought in my head anymore. It took those kinds of thoughts completely away from me. I feel like I have life now. I don't even want to think about where I would be without them." - Mike, U.S. Air Force
“Mission Mustang has been the most effective part of my re-entry journey. Honestly, my relationship with this beautiful mustang, who seemed to be just as traumatized as I felt, was so critical. It got me out of my shell and opened the doors to so many other good pathways back. EquiCenter brought this to me. Thank you.” - USMC Iraq War Veteran
