Horses with Hope: Discovery, Growth and Learning Programs

Directions Website

Therapeutic riding provides physical, social and emotional benefits through the horse's movement.

Join us in helping to improve the quality of life to persons 2 years or older with special needs. We are looking for individuals, 14 years or older, parents, Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents, friends and family to volunteer with our riding sessions. We utilize 3 volunteers per rider, a horse leader and 2 side walkers, with up to 6 volunteers per session. Training is provided, and you don't have to know about horses or special needs.

Tuesday Rider Spotlight: Grace! 🐴💚

Grace has been riding with Horses with Hope for several years, and we always look forward to her bright smile and the kindness she shows to the volunteers and horses.

Over the years, she has grown in confidence while enjoying lesson games and activities. We’ve loved watching her learn and seeing her love for the horses grow! Thank you, Grace, for being part of another great riding season! 🍂

That’s a wrap on our 2026 riding season! 🐴🍂

Abby, Anaya, and Michael, along with Miracles, Micah, and Rex, helped kick off our final day of riding lessons on Saturday.

Thank you to our riders, families, volunteers, and supporters for a year of learning, progress, and connections. And, of course, thank you to our wonderful herd! 💚

Friday Fun Fact! 🐴💡

A saddle does more than give the rider a seat! A properly fitted saddle helps distribute the rider’s weight across the supporting areas of the horse’s back while keeping pressure off the spine.

But fit can change as a horse’s weight, conditioning, and muscle development change. That’s why regular saddle-fit checks are an important part of keeping horses comfortable.

The horses aren’t the only ones to call the barn home! 🐈🐴

For National Cat Day, we’re looking back at a few feline faces from around the farm. From keeping an eye on daily activities to finding the best spots for a nap, each cat brings their own personality to barn life. 💚🐾

🐴💬 Fun Fact Friday: If Horses Could Talk!

Who says horses can't have a conversation? 😄

While they may not speak our language, horses do communicate - through their ears, eyes, facial expressions, vocalizations, and body language!

Learning to recognize these signals helps us better understand our equine partners and build strong connections. 💙
