At STRIDE, volunteers truly are the heartbeat of our program. Therapeutic riding relies on the dedication of caring individuals who help make each lesson safe, fun, and rewarding for our riders.

Our lesson volunteers—serving as sidewalkers and horse leaders—must be at least 14 years old and physically able to walk and occasionally jog short distances during a 30-minute session.

If you’re younger or prefer to help behind the scenes, there are many other ways to get involved! We welcome volunteers for barn chores, grounds maintenance, fundraising, grant writing, and special events.

No matter your age or experience, your time and effort make a lasting difference in the lives of our riders, horses, and community.
