Form Up Fridays

FORM UP FRIDAYS allows Veterans and First Responders to learn and apply skills through Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) and is based on the principles of Posttraumatic Growth. EAL is an experiential appraoch to learning that leverages the unique qualities of a horse to enhance self-awareness, facilitate emotional regulation, and improve interpersonal relationships. The goal is to facilitate personal growth and develop life skills that enhance relationships in all areas of a participant’s life. Veterans & First Responders who participate in EAL programs experience noticeable improvements in physical, mental, and emotional health.
