The Spirit Horse Program moved to it's home base in Portugal Cove in 2015. The vision of the services is aimed at enhancing the mental health and life skills of youth, adults, families and groups through therapeutic interaction with horses.  People will gain a sense of meaning, purpose, self-worth and belonging through use of the horse. Through being with and caring for this creature people will learn the power of themselves as a caring and needed individual. People will feel self-confident and empowered to achieve recovery.  At SPIRIT Horse- Stable Life we are focused on providing interactive horse experiences from the ground up working side by side with the horse.

In 2016 Stable Life Inc was created.  Stable Life Inc. is a registered not for profit organization mandated to support people with mental illness through the provision of an Equine Assisted Program for the purpose of offering alternative ways of living a recovery based life.
