Founded in 2000, Quantum Leap Farm in Odessa, Florida, a 501-c-3 nonprofit organization that is a nationally recognized equestrian program serving injured and disabled civilian adults and children, military service members and their families.  Quantum Leap Farm has long-standing relationships with both our local VA hospitals.  Injured service members are referred from multiple departments at James Haley Veterans Administration Medical Center, Bay Pines Veterans Administration Medical Center, and family services centers located on MacDill Air Force Base. Our Horses Healing Wounded Warriors Programs uses horses as therapists to assist injured service members and their families in transition, and also service members and their families seeking personal and /or professional development.  Injured service members may participate in therapeutic or recreational riding, hippotherapy, carriage driving, kinesthetic therapy, or At EASE sessions.
