"Camp Liberty has been a tremendous support system for me in my journey. Could not have a better group of guys to help each other.
It is truly a brotherhood."
SSGT Murray, USAF (Retired)

ABOUT US
Welcome to Camp Liberty, Inc! We assist military veterans and those sworn to serve and protect with their personal journey towards healing by providing Therapeutic Horseback Riding (THR) and other equine assisted activities free
of charge.
Our Equine Assisted Activity (EAA) programs facilitates relationships and emotional bonding between veterans or police officers and their horse.
Equine-Assisted Activities Harnesses the Power of the Horse
as a Pathway to Self-Discovery and Growth
Horses are extremely sensitive and perceptive beings, by learning how to approach, communicate with and effectively guide their horse, participants also learn how to better understand and guide one’s self. Horses provide emotional, cognitive, social and physical benefits which can increase self-esteem, self-worth, trust for others and significantly reduce depression, anxiety and self-inflicting thoughts.
Program graduates are encouraged to volunteer with Camp Liberty and help better prepare their horse for its role in providing therapy to others that we serve in the community.
