HOPE is a Whidbey Island nonprofit offering therapeutic, equine-assisted activities for children and adults facing mental, emotional, physical, developmental, or behavioral challenges — including autism, anxiety, PTSD, cerebral palsy, and ADHD. Through grooming, groundwork, and riding, participants build confidence, communication skills, coordination, and emotional resilience while forming meaningful relationships with horses. Each session is personalized to complement individual clinical or educational goals. We welcome riders from Whidbey and beyond, and 85% receive scholarship support so cost is never a barrier.
