Our Story
People. Horses. Possibilities.At Hearts of Steele, we believe in the power of horses to change lives. Our story is about creating opportunities for growth, healing, and connection for individuals of all abilities and circumstances.
Who We Are
Hearts of Steele Equine Facilitated Learning (EFL) is a Mississippi-based organization committed to improving mental, physical, and emotional wellness through meaningful interaction with horses.
We serve children, teens, adults, and individuals with special needs, including those affected by trauma or foster care experiences, by providing safe, supportive, and engaging experiences that build confidence, life skills, and a sense of belonging.
Our programs meet people where they are and create opportunities for them to learn, grow, and discover their strengths — both on and off the horse.
Our Why
We have seen firsthand how horses can break down barriers, build trust, and open doors to new possibilities.
Whether it’s a child finding their voice, a teen learning responsibility, or an adult building confidence again — the impact is real and lasting.
Horses have a unique ability to meet people without judgment. They respond to our energy, honesty, and effort, teaching valuable lessons about communication, patience, and self-awareness.
Our Experience & Background
Hearts of Steele EFL is led by a team with hands-on experience in equine facilitated learning, education, youth development, and community programs.
We have worked with individuals with special needs, youth affected by trauma or foster care experiences, schools, and community organizations to create programs that are engaging, impactful, and inclusive.
From local camps and workshops to collaborations with schools and organizations such as Special Olympics, our work continues to grow as we build partnerships and expand opportunities for those we serve.
