About Us
From Montana to Alaska
Ravens Flight Equestrian was established following a relocation from Montana to North Pole, Alaska, with the vision of developing a year-round equine-assisted services facility focused on healing, personal growth, and community connection.
The organization is dedicated to providing equine-assisted therapy and structured riding opportunities for veterans, children, and adults who benefit from a safe, supportive, and trauma-informed environment. These programs are designed to promote emotional regulation, confidence, and resilience through meaningful human–horse interaction.
In addition to therapeutic programming, Ravens Flight Equestrian will offer community-centered services including pony and horse events, summer camps, riding lessons, clinics, and an equine-focused library with educational resources on horsemanship and care.
Ravens Flight Equestrian serves the Fairbanks North Star Borough and the greater Interior Alaska region, with a commitment to expanding access to equine-assisted experiences that strengthen individuals and communities alike.
