Broken Horses Healing Broken Kids in Colorado

Organization information

Charis Youth Ranch Home Of New Life Thoroughbreds

Location: Laporte, United States of America

Summary

This project will provide feed & care for 24 horses rescued from the slaughter pipeline in northern Colorado who have found a second career connecting with at-risk youth in our equine assisted learning programs. Not only do the horses find purpose & a new life, but by learning to care for, communicate with & ride the horses, the youth garner valuable life skills such as confidence, compassion, responsibility and self-awareness. As horse & child mirror one another in brokenness, healing begins.
