Shamrock Reins

Shamrock Reins is a nonprofit 501 (c)(3) Charitable Organization formed February 10, 2014 to provide Equine Assisted Activities and Therapies for Veterans, Active Duty & Reserve Service Members, First Responders, their Families, and the Families of Fallen Heroes.

Our Military Service Members, First Responders, and their Families make significant sacrifices for the freedom and safety we are fortunate to have in the USA. Shamrock Reins believes we have an obligation and responsibility to take care of and give back to our Service Members and their Families by helping them reintegrate back into civilian life, by providing comfort, and by helping them heal through various beneficial services and activities. We must not forget that their Families and the Families of Fallen Heroes have made significant sacrifices for our country and we must also take care of them. Shamrock Reins will provide services for all of these remarkable Men, Women, and their Families to offer support and comfort through the amazing healing power of our Horses.

Military Personnel return home post deployment with various injuries both physical and emotional. Types of injuries suffered by Veterans and Military Personnel include, but are not limited to PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), Traumatic Brain Injury, Amputations, Paralysis, Chronic Muscle and Nerve Pain, Traumatic Arthritis, Depression, Anxiety, and MST (Military Sexual Trauma).

Both suicide and homelessness rates are on the rise amongst Veterans. Re-integrating back into society is very difficult. Our Veterans, Military Service Members, and their Families struggle to adjust and cope. Likewise our First Responders experience many of the same injuries and challenges. Our Horses can help.
