2024 REX FOUNDATION GRANTEE
HOPE’s Mission is to empower children and adults facing special challenges – whether physical, cognitive or emotional – to discover their abilities, independent skills and explore their potential through use of HOPE’s nationally accredited safe and effective equine assisted activities and therapy.
HOPE provides horsemanship lessons one day a week from spring through fall. Its certified instructors and trained volunteers help students as they connect with HOPE’s gentle therapy horses and progress through sequential horsemanship levels to acquire new skills and a greater understanding of horse sense. In doing so, they develop the essential interpersonal skills, independence, and confidence needed to succeed in life.
HOPE’s Board, staff, students, volunteers, and horses are grateful to the Rex Foundation Grant Funds to ensure HOPE’s continued success.
