Visitation House is a transitional housing program for homeless women and their children. Visitation House began helping homeless women and their children in 1985 as a ministry of the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word. The mission of the Visitation House Transitional Housing Program is to assist women in ending the cycle of poverty and homelessness in their lives and in the lives of their children. The women who participate in the programs offered by Visitation House commit themselves to personal, educational and vocational goals that will move them from dependency and homelessness to positive growth, self-reliance and permanent housing. Some of the services offered include computer training, vocational programs, counseling services, subsidized transitional housing and childcare.

SASHA is thrilled to again offer the special leadline class for the children of Visitation House. This class, held on Saturday afternoon, gives these children an opportunity to ride horses generously donated by the competing stables in the Rose Palace ring. This event has proven to be fun for not only the Visitation House visitors – mothers, kids and Visitation House staff – but has been a crowd pleaser with the horse people, too.

Thanks goes out to all the people and stables that make this class happen every year, including:

Alpha Chi Omega sorority

Al and Cathy Hof

Casey McBride Photography

Harford International

Horse Flix Equine Video

Leer Ventures- The Arguello Family

Cross Creek Stables

Paul Cates Stable

Shenandoah Stables

Victory Lane Farm
