Warrior Ranch Foundation | Caregivers Journey

Warrior Ranch Foundation envisions a world where veterans and rehabilitated rescue horses realize their productive future in society. At the Warrior Ranch, veterans of the military as well as first-responder veterans are invited to attend clinics and workshops where they learn from an expert how to work with horses in a number of capacities.

As participants engage in these non-riding activities, they develop bonds, give guidance, demonstrate leadership, and help horses overcome certain fears. In doing so, participants receive the benefit of working with animals: companionship, lower stress levels, and a release of the “happy” hormone, oxytocin.
