Our Impact

Equuvation was born in late 2016, but it wasn’t until our third full year of service delivery when we truly found our stride. 2020-2022 turned out to be unusual years, but we worked hard to continue providing our services amidst a pandemic. And now, we are excited about continuing to grow and strengthen in 2024, providing more structure and talent to our programs, refining our processes, and expanding our collaborations so that we may continue providing effective, ethical equine-assisted and nature-based therapy and education that prioritizes the safety and well-being of our clients and animals.
