Warrior Outreach is a nonprofit organization based in Harris County, Georgia, that relies heavily on donations and volunteer support to provide therapeutic, engaging activities with horses and community-building to veterans, soldiers and their families. Noelle Tiner, the volunteer horsemanship program coordinator, credits Warrior Outreach with having a strong positive impact on her children and husband, who suffers from PTSD, as well as other service members.
