Technically, this event was Nov. 10, but we give thanks to our Veterans every day.

Women Veterans in Middle Georgia recently got to experience what a therapy session with horses could look like.

What did they learn? Communication is critical to achieving goals that involve others.

Hands-on experience
One woman sits on a bucket in the foreground, one sits on a red walker and a small beige horse stands in front of her, and three other women flank the woman and horse, standing closer to the fence.
