HOW CAN I GET INVOLVED?

There is a place for you at NHR.

We need volunteers!  This is a great opportunity to have hands-on experience with our riders. No experience with horses or individuals with disabilities is necessary. We need people to groom and tack horses, assist riders, lead horses, and work in the barn or office. Contact us to make a difference in the lives of these riders.

We need professionals!  We are currently seeking physical, occupational or recreational therapists to join our Hippotherapy team. If you know someone who has these or other professional skills that could benefit NHR, don’t hesitate to contact us.

We need riders! If you know someone who would benefit from Equine Assisted Activities, have them contact us. Classes will fill up quickly.

We need donations!  Please review the needs list below and see how you can help provide these items for the riders at NHR.
