Solid Ground Equine Assisted Activities and Therapy Center is a certified 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to restoring hope, purpose, and wellness through equine-centered therapeutic programs. The organization’s mission is to inspire and empower individuals by equipping them with the skills necessary to enhance their ability to overcome challenges and improve wellness through equine-centered activities.
At the heart of their work is the Therapeutic Riding Program, combining horseback riding, grooming, and ground exercises to improve motor skills, emotional regulation, balance, and confidence—all delivered by certified instructors and volunteers. They also provide Equine Assisted Leadership (EAL) sessions, using horse-guided activities to build self-awareness, communication, team building, and personal growth in individuals and groups.
Through their specialized programs, Solid Ground provides participants with opportunities to develop emotional regulation, communication skills, and confidence in a supportive environment. Their trained team of horses, miniature donkeys, and farm animals serves as empathetic partners in healing—mirroring emotions, promoting calm, and teaching patience and empathy in every session.
By combining equine-assisted activities with therapeutic interventions, Solid Ground creates a unique healing environment where individuals can experience personal transformation and renewed hope for their future.
