Since 1989, Inland Seas Education Association (ISEA), located in Suttons Bay, Michigan, has provided learners of all ages with hands-on experiences aboard traditionally-rigged tall ship schooners, along the shores of the Great Lakes, and in local rivers, streams, and wetlands. Their grant initiative restored the donated schooner Utopia into a Coast Guard-approved vessel to continue the instruction of school-aged children. Their mission is to inspire Great Lakes curiosity, stewardship, and passion for the Great Lakes.

PEACE Ranch is home to 17 unique rescue horses, most of whom have suffered some sort of abuse or neglect and were difficult to place. These horses act as “therapists,” helping those who also are struggling with the effects of trauma in their own lives. Naturally predisposed to read emotions and body language, horses are non-judgmental. Individuals receiving Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) benefit from increased confidence, mindfulness, connectedness, and more. A multidisciplinary team integrates Art, Music, and EAP in a year-round facility that Impact100 TC grant funds helped complete.
