Abstract:
A local Fayetteville couple, Deb and John Foley, founded the nonprofit Horses That Heal to provide local veterans with equine therapy. Horses, which have high emotional intelligence, are used to assist those struggling with mental health problems. For service members, the first dozen sessions are free with the cost supplemented by private donations. Recently, the program has expanded by partnering with the Lone Survivor Foundation to assist with therapeutic retreats for service members.
