About Special Equestrians of the Treasure Coast

Serving our community since 1992, Special Equestrians of the Treasure Coast, Inc. (SETC) of Vero Beach, Florida has provided Equine-Assisted Services (EAS) for children and adults with disabilities. 

​

To a child or adult with a physical, developmental, or emotional disability, life looks a lot brighter on the back of a horse.  Therapeutic riding is an opportunity to see possibilities versus disabilities – to build confidence and strength, alongside our equine partners. 

Thanks to our generous donors, we will never turn away a potential student based on their inability to pay.  

​

We are a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization and a Center Member of PATH Intl. (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship, International).

​

All classes are taught by PATH Intl. certified therapeutic riding instructors.
