Veterans & First Responders
Everything about today's experience was amazing. From Sarah instructing and demonstrating the steps of earning a mustangs trust, to apply those skill to the practicality of every day life. I will definitely return and have my family experience this. Thank you so much for taking the time to show us veterans what more is out there in the country life."

The Mustang Mission
Veterans and first responders equine assisted leadership program design specifically for veterans and first responders. This program helps participants build trust and leadership skills through nonverbal communication with horses, using body language and energy control. They learn to lead and guide horses just as they must leave themselves through life challenges. The exercises mirror real life and teach leadership dynamics, emotional regulation, confidence and resilience, all essential skills for managing stress and trauma both on and off the job.

We also partner with other Veteran based organizations such as Wounded Warriors, San Joaquin Valley Veterans and Our Heroes Dreams. These programs are for individuals within their organizations and they serve a wide variety of Veterans from different backgrounds and branches of the military. We focus on the same principals as our Mustang Mission program for these groups.
