Show Notes

We're back for another season of the EQUUS Film and Arts Fest podcast! After an extended hiatus with time off for The Mustang Discovery Ride, we'll be bringing in all of the available EQUUS authors, artists and filmmakers to hear more about the work featured in the 2022 EQUUS Film and Arts Fest in Sacramento. From these short WebChats to stories about our partners and sponsors, the podcast will allow us to  bring the festival straight to our listeners.

In this episode, you'll hear from long-time supporter of the festival, Mike Dunne of Equine Empowered Therapy (EET.) In this previously recorded interview, Mike discusses the programs that EET provides partnering Veterans and Mustangs. Equine Empowered Therapy (EET) is a fully certified 501(c)(3) charitable corporation designed for veterans who are experiencing difficulty reintegrating into civilian life.  The program utilizes natural horsemanship and rescued horses to provide programs that achieve therapeutic success, education, vocational training and relief from PTS in Southern California. E.E.T. is free to all veterans. To learn more, visit https://www.equineempoweredtherapy.com.
