Who we are
Beneath a canopy of oak trees, the CHAPS Center offers peace, hope, and growth to the Central Florida community through a variety of equine-assisted services. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2012, our mission is to educate, empower, and enrich lives through meaningful connections with horses and nature.
At CHAPS, the Center for Horsemanship and Personal Success, hope grows in the quiet moments shared with a horse and in the community that gathers around them.
