Most people are familiar with the mental health benefits of owning a pet. Relationships with cats and dogs are widely recognized as therapeutic. Although, many people are unaware of the tremendous health benefits that come from spending time with horses. Not only are horses intelligent and majestic, their size alone is enough to command respect. The range of benefits that result from spending time with a horse can be everlasting and it is our goal to promote wellness with our community's at-risk youth. 

According to WebMD, building relationships with horses can treat behavioral problems, relationship issues, anxiety, grief, depression, ADHD, addiction, and eating disorders. Many of the youth we work with struggle with the aforementioned mental health challenges. We will provide Equine Therapy as an intervention for mental health challenges and to expose youth to experiences that they might not otherwise have the chance to encounter.  

Summer is here and many youth are home board and disengaged. This is the perfect time to implement this therapy for their mental health and enrichment. We cannot do this alone. Like our other initiatives, this will take a collaborative effort from our donors, friends, and community partners.
