Military Committee Mission Statement:

Military Committee Objectives:
The Military Committee exists to expand the availability of the EAGALA Model to, Servicemembers (past present and future) and by fostering partnerships with Veteran Service Organizations (VFW, DAV, American Legion, etc.), The US Dept of Veterans Affairs and other Military focused Non-Profit Organizations globally, supporting outreach, curriculum development, and cultivating pathways for servicemembers, veterans and providers to engage in equine-assisted psychotherapy and learning (EAP/EAL).
