SIRE, HOUSTON’S THERAPEUTIC<br />

EQUESTRIAN CENTERS<br />

Nothing else can compare with therapy on horseback. Equine-assisted<br />

activities improve physical balance and coordination, mental acuity,<br />

emotional stability and social interactions. At SIRE, we see miracles<br />

on horseback happen every day. The work of our dedicated volunteers<br />

helps guarantee that children and adults with disabilities in the Greater<br />

Houston Area will have the programs they need to live longer, healthier,<br />

more productive lives. In addition to their weekly work in the arena, many<br />

of our volunteers donate their time and talents at fund-raising events<br />

such as our annual Ride-A-Thon and the yearly Trailblazers Luncheon.<br />

Volunteers are on hand during the NARHA on-site certification and annual<br />

SIRE Show-Off and volunteers are vital to our Clients’ successes at the<br />

Top Hands Horse Show, during the Houston Rodeo and competition at<br />

the regional and state Special Olympics. Therapeutic horseback riding<br />

creates a bond of success between the rider and their horse. Volunteers<br />

are their own personal cheering section and the instructor is their mentor<br />

and coach. Clients become more empowered and better equipped to fully<br />

live their lives, each day.<br />

To volunteer, please call one of our arenas and ask to speak with a<br />

volunteer coordinator. SIRESpring, call 281-353-6160. SIREHockley, call<br />
