Ten years ago, Micah Fink, a former US Navy SEAL, started Heroes and Horses in the United States with a simple but radical idea: to help combat veterans heal not through medication or traditional therapy, but by rediscovering who they truly are beyond their military service. Through wilderness immersion, horsemanship, and philosophy rooted in personal accountability, Heroes and Horses has challenged the conventional approach to veteran support – proving that healing comes from within, not from external interventions.
Our vision
Building on the bonds forged in combat and as allies, Heroes and Horses Australia (HHA) works in affiliation with Heroes and Horses (HH) in the United States to offer combat veterans an alternative solution for redefining and approaching their physical and mental wellbeing; to rebuild inner strength and to forge renewed purpose by taking greater ownership of their lives.
