OUR MISSION
The mission of SIRE is to improve the quality of life for people with special needs through therapeutic horsemanship activities and therapies, and educational outreach.
The power of therapeutic horsemanship to change lives has been known for hundreds of years. Scientific studies and those who participate note benefits including:
Increased strength
Improved balance
Enriched social interactions
Increased flexibility
Improved coordination
Enhanced self-esteem
WHAT WE DO
SIRE serves adults and children with a wide variety of special needs including, but not limited to cerebral palsy, autism, Down syndrome, multiple sclerosis, developmental delay, attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder, traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury.
Through equine-assisted activities and therapies, our riders experience the many benefits of therapeutic horsemanship described below.

This year we have some specific needs at our Fort Bend and Spring locations. Together we can meet these needs and ensure that SIRE is able to provide the best services possible.SIRE needs to raise $83,000 by the end of the year to maintain our standards of excellence.

A record-breaking event with $230,000 raised and over 225 attendees. April 2 marked a historic moment for SIRE and this annual event. Honorees Marie and Bill Wise were recognized and thanks to a matching gift challenge by Cheryl and Bryan Nelson, the audience handily met the paddles-up challenge and a desperately needed tractor has been purchased and put to good use at the Fort Bend location.
Thank you to everyone who made this evening a tremendous success and to Beck & Masten for being the Presenting Sponsor.
