Meet Scarlett — one of our brightest barn personalities!

She once belonged to an Amish family, pulling a carriage before being auctioned and purchased by a doctor who dreamed of trail rides with his family. When their land deal fell through, they reached out and asked if we could accept her as a donation. ❤️

We can’t take in every horse we’re offered (the calls never stop!), but something about Scarlett’s story — her history, her heart, and her good training — made her the perfect fit for STAT. She was just eight years old when she joined our precious herd, and what a blessing she’s been.

Today, Scarlett proudly serves on our Adaptive Riding Team, helping children who live with physical and behavioral challenges, and those who have experienced the foster care system. She gives her all — and her gratitude shines through her spunky personality and one-of-a-kind connection with people.

And if you’ve met her, you know exactly what we mean! 🤣❤️🐴

The cold air had her feeling wild and free today ❄️🐎
She kicked up the soft sand and danced like winter itself was cheering her on — mane flying, breath turning to mist in the morning air. After a good roll and a few victory bucks, she finally slowed down, sides steaming and eyes sparkling. Time to dry off, my beautiful girl — the snow’s on its way, and your blanket’s waiting. ❤️

Our Story

STAT strives for equality of ALL in a society without barriers, to help every human reach their full potential.

STAT provides EAP/EAL and Hippotherapy services; we also offer restorative retreats and can customize a program to your needs:

>> Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (a mental health treatment that incorporates horses in a variety of activities that stimulate growth and learning for clients) We utilize the EAGALA modality, which provides for a powerful and effective therapeutic session with a collaborative effort between a licensed mental health professional, a horse professional, and the horse(s) to facilitate treatment goals. (

>> Hippotherapy (Speech, Physical & Occupational Outpatient Therapy) We utilize horses as the therapy tool and licensed therapists trained by the American Hippotherapy Association).
