Spring Reins of Life, Inc. (Horses, Humans & Healing) 501c3 is a nonprofit public charity providing equine-assisted psychotherapy (EAP) in central New Jersey. We operate under the Eagala Model serving groups of trauma survivors. When struggling with the effects of severe trauma and "talking about it" is not possible, the Horses can help. Spring Reins of Life is dedicated to promoting psychological healing, emotional well-being and personal growth using the skills of mental health professionals and the guided assistance of horses. For thousands of years there has been a unique bond between humans and horses, it is our mission to enhance and leverage this bond to reach those individuals who are suffering from the effects of trauma, loss, drug addiction and/or the combined stressors and obstacles set forth by either circumstance or societal confines. SRoL is a volunteer-run organization and we are always looking for new members of our human Herd to help keep Horses working. If you have skills in management, program development, fundraising, or basic farm work - please reach out to us. Since opening our arena gates we have proudly served more than 1300 at-risk teens and over 800 veterans as well as hundreds of others in trauma recovery. Horses help us to find peace, to find present-moment and create individual and personalized coping skills to overcome PTS(d). All donations are tax-deductible. Since 2014 SRoL became the first NJ program designated as "Eagala Military Service Provider" certified and have retained this status annually.
