Serving Those Who Serve

What is Serving Those Who Serve?

Men and women who have served or are currently serving our communities and nation carry burdens and experiences that few outside these circles can fully understand. StirrUp Purpose is dedicated to supporting and improving the lives of its veteran and first responder communities. Equine services provide emotional, cognitive, social and physical benefits for veterans, first responders and their families. Individuals working with horses have reported benefits including: increased self-esteem, self-worth, trust for others and community integration as well as decreased depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder attacks and self-inflicting thoughts.

Veteran & First Responder Retreats

An important vision of StirrUp Purpose is to create respite, healing and peer support for our veterans and first responders through meaningful equine related retreats and adventures.
