Storm Harbor Equestrian Center

Welcome to Storm Harbor Equestrian Center! At Storm Harbor, we serve the entire community, encompassing more than six counties in the Pittsburgh area. Storm Harbor Equestrian Center provides weekly Equine Assisted Activities (EAA) for people of all ages with cognitive, physical, emotional and social disabilities. The SRU Foundation Inc. is the fiscal agent for the Storm Harbor Equestrian Center.

While our main focus is children and adults with disabilities, we also offer a few programs which are open to the general public. We provide certified instructors and services for our Special Olympic Equestrian Team, Disabled Veterans programs, community summer camps, many programs for individuals on the Autism Spectrum. We also offer additional day programs for local community agencies, schools and youth programs for children and adults with disabilities.
