Welcome to the Native Horsemanship Youth Program Website!

We began our program as a volunteer effort in 1998, allowing children on the Port Madison Indian Reservation the chance to learn about traditional native horse training, and the chance to interact with horses on a daily basis. This program soon became so popular that we became a tribal youth program in 1999, operating through the Suquamish Tribe. We have serve approximately 100 children annually since 1999.
We currently work with a variety of agencies, including the Port Gamble S'klallam Tribe and Kitsap Mental Health, along with private individuals to provide access to horses and equine therapy for youth.
