Together human and animal, through the mentoring guidance of a staff person, can start rebuilding hope and trust for the future based on Gods unconditional love and acceptance.

        <ExplanationTxt>First Responders During the summer of 2025 we offered three First Responder Families Buckaroo Days whereby we invited families of local law enforcement, firefighters and paramedics out to the ranch for a day of fun and encouragement. Knowing the unique and stressful challenges that first responders and their families were face, we wanted to offer them an opportunity to participate with their children in hayrides, games, crafts, a devotional, as well as hands on time with horses. These days were offered free of charge. It was our way of honoring these families who selflessly serve our community unwavering in their sacrifice. In total 31 first responder families participated with a total of 126 adults and children. Additionally, we served 10 participants with a total of 32 sessions to help a family member who was struggling with adversity.</ExplanationTxt>
