We Want To Make A Difference

THE CURRENT SYSTEM IS FAILING OUR VETERANSIT’S TIME FOR A NEW APPROACH.

At Vaquero Bandido, we're dedicated to supporting Heroes and Horses in their transformative mission to empower veterans. By embracing a 360-degree approach that integrates whole-food nutrition, mindset coaching, breathing techniques, meditation, wilderness experiences, and interaction with wild horses, we help veterans discover their inner strength and purpose. Through our partnership, we strive to give back to this program and work together to create a space so people can heal.

The Theory

  • We’ve done a great job of turning civilians into soldiers, but fundamentally failed at helping soldiers transition back into civilians;
  • High unemployment rates are a direct result of a system that is not created to support the redefining of purpose after service;
  • There is a huge issue with the over-prescribing of psychiatric medications as a first line of defense;
  • There is an over-reliance on government assistance programs, which also perpetuates a victim-mentality among the veteran population.
