Empowered by the collective support of staff, volunteers, donors, and participants, GallopNYC provides therapeutic experiences with horses to facilitate personal development for New Yorkers with disabilities and others who benefit from their life-changing programs. They leverage the power of horses to support people in learning new life skills and to thrive within their communities and families.

GallopNYC serves hundreds of riders a week via riding programs at numerous NYC locations. Schedules at each location vary seasonally.

GallopNYC serves children with disabilities, veterans with PTSD, and retirees by providing hippotherapy, horseback riding lessons, and non-mounted therapeutic engagement with horses. The physical strength gained from riding, the emotional resilience of overcoming obstacles, and the neural pathways that develop and open up as a result of their programs foster greater independence and expand the horizons for all in their community.
