THE NATIONAL EQUINE INSTITUTE OF GROWTH THROUGH HEALING, INC.
(NEIGH)
MISSION
Our mission is to provide transformative equine-assisted therapy services in a trauma-informed environment that fosters mental and emotional healing to prevent suicide and improve well-being.
WHO WE ARE
NEIGH, Inc. specializes in aiding the post-traumatic growth of Veterans, Active Military and First Responders. However, we offer our services to all who seek to overcome personal and mental challenges as the result of traumatic events. Our certified professional staff and equine (horse) facilitators offer support and highlight resilience while participants gain insight and adopt skills to ensure long term success.
WHY WE STARTED
The NEIGH was established in honor of Constance Marie Davenport, the late sister of our Founder Dawn Samuelson. Connie was a U.S. Air Force Veteran and active member of the NY/Niagara Falls Air Force Reserves who died by suicide at the age of 25. Dawn developed The Constance Project to serve Veterans struggling with mental health challenges.
Suicide prevention is the driving force behind our programing and central to the mission. Our team of facilitators are trained to recognize indications of suicide and to respond appropriately.
​
If you or someone you know is experiencing thoughts of suicide, contact the 24/7 crisis hotline by calling 988.

PROGRAM TESTIMONIALS
"At my first session, Lilly (one of the horses we work with) came up and hugged me. I immediately felt the weight of the world lift off of my shoulders... This program has helped me form a different perspective on life and the way I view things, especially things that are out of my control. "
