Sign up for our Spring Session beginning February 16th White Bridle’s therapeutic program for children with autism is on winter break until February 16, 2013. Please download an application for the program if you wish to sign up for the spring session. WHITE BRIDLE EQUINE THERAPY FORM.pdf 
This winter, we’ll be concentrating on training another driving mini, Silver, and our pony, Red Moon. Additionally, we’ll be working on fundraising and plans to open our first facility in Arlington, Texas. We’ll also be certifying an organization in Austin on the White Bridle program, so others will be using our program or elements of our program in the near future. The goal of White Bridle’s program is to help children function better by providing activities that help “wake up their brains”. The program combines elements of physical therapy, occupational therapy and recreational therapy along with cart driving with miniature horses. Cart driving is beneficial in stimulating verbal activity in nonverbal children in addition to a myriad of other therapeutic benefits. The program has a cognitive area where children are challenged after completing exercises that stimulate the development of new neural pathways.

Mission

White Bridle incorporated as a 501(c)3 nonprofit in 2007 and began rescuing and acquiring large and miniature horses with the intention of using them in programs to serve our community.


In 2009, we launched our miniature horse program for special needs children - primarily children with autism.  This program is very effective in helping children improve their ability to function, and it serves many children who live below the poverty level.  Most of our adult volunteers are school teachers who want to make the difference in the lives of children.

White Bridle’s mission is to serve our community through equine programs that enable people to live happier, more productive and rewarding lives.

Brief History

A few words from Sheree J. Wilson, President of White Bridle:


The passing of Larry Hagman has had such an enormous effect on me, it has left me speechless and breathless.  He was my Dear Friend, my Confidant, my Mentor.  No other man will ever have as enormous impact on the entertainment world as Larry as been.  He was everything to everyone.  He was a wonderful father, a devoted husband, an extraordinary brilliant comedian, an astute business man, a philanthropist, Honorary Chairman of The White Bridle Society, a therapeutic program for children with autism, the best friend you could ask for, and the most loved "Villain" that ever set foot on this earth.  No other can fill the footprint he has left. I ask for your love, support and your prayers as we deal with the loss of such a tremendous man, my dear friend Larry Hagman.

Tribute to Larry Hagman:

On November 15, 2012 Larry Hagman made the last public appearance before his death at White Bridle Society’s Wine and Roses fundraiser at the home of Lisa Blue Baron.  Photographed with Larry are: Sheree J. Wilson (White Bridle’s President), Nikki Solomon (co-owner of Rich Hippie), and the radiant, Linda Gray.

Lisa Blue Baron (to the left) and Larry Hagman were the Title  Sponsors of White Bridle’s event; and Larry was the Honorary Chair.  In this photo, Larry presents Sheree a check from his foundation to support White Bridle’s program for children with autism.

Here are a few of our favorite photos of the evening:

“J.R.’s Silver Treasure”

In memory of Larry Hagman, we’re training Silver for cart driving and will be registering him in the name: “J.R.’s Silver Treasure.”  Larry made a donation that will make this a reality; and the additional funds will go to the purchase of 3 new harnesses for our therapeutic program and additional training for Silver to become a driving pair with Star, our best therapeutic driving horse. 


Larry’s memory will live on with our program through this very important donation.
