We’re a group of agencies working together to collect national data on at-risk equines and those in transition from nonprofit organizations that take custody of at-risk equines and/or provide other services related to improving equine welfare such as assistance with veterinary care, euthanasia, rehoming, and behavioral needs as well as other “safety net” services including but not limited to feed banks and gelding clinics. Funders and industry professionals identified a need for accurate and credible data, we see it as our responsibility to understand the issues and provide needed insight. We collect and analyze data and report on baseline trends such as capacity, current population descriptions, intakes, and outcomes. We understand the power of data and how it can vastly shift the dialogue around an issue and drive positive change.
