Our Mission/How we are involved with horses:
True Friends' mission is to provide life-changing experiences that enhance independence and self-esteem for children and adults with disabilities. Our vision is a world where experiences and adventures are open to people of all abilities. Year-round camp and respite experiences enable those with disabilities to challenge themselves through outdoor activities.

In 2013 True Friends established True Strides, a formal hippotherapy and therapeutic horseback riding (THR) Program to add increased value, new experiences, targeted therapy and unique challenges to program participants.

Primary Focus involving horses (Horse Welfare, Public Service, Sport & Recreation):  Public Service

Our organization conducts Equine Assisted Activities and Therapies (EAAT) in accordance with the EQUUS Foundation Guidelines on Qualifications of Organizations Conducting Equine-Assisted Activities and Therapies (EAAT).

Our organization is directly responsible for the care and shelter of equines involved in our programs.
