Starting Gait Foundation ® is a faith-based, 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on lowering the suicide rate within the veteran community—helping veterans conquer the effects of trauma and the challenges of transitioning back into civilian life.
There is no cost to enroll in this program. Our one-day experience employs a proven healing process where at-risk veterans are paired with mustangs and retired, off-the-track thoroughbred horses. This unique round-pen experience provides veterans with training in understanding the unspoken language of the horse—first building trust, then fostering a willing partnership, and ultimately realizing their first real steps toward a new, meaningful life.
Breakthroughs can happen when you leave room for the unexpected.
