Mission Statement
The mission of Starbrite Therapeutic Equestrian Center is to serve youth, adults and veterans with physical, mental, social and psychological disabilities and to be known as a place of empowerment for these individuals and their families.
Description
Starbrite Therapeutic Equestrian Center started in February 2020 and has since then grown to serve over 30 children and adults with various disabilities. We offer therapeutic riding and unmounted horsemanship for our participants and a veterans program called Horses for Heroes. We are always looking for new volunteers to help with riding lessons and caring for our horses, but we also welcome groups who are interested in coming for single-day events. We have been so blessed to grow as much as we have over the years, and we can't wait to grow bigger so that we can serve even more individuals in our community.
