A Horse's Friend is a program that allows inner-city children and adolescents the opportunity to learn respect, responsibility, and decision making skills by working with horses. Not only do participants learn how to feed, groom, and tack horses, but they also get the opportunity to ride. What a great opportunity for kids who otherwise might not ever ride a horse! After the initial sessions, kids are invited back to work as mentors to their peers thereby creating an even greater sense of responsibility and accomplishment.
