Our Mission
At Horse Whispers we connect system involved youth in San Benito, Santa Cruz, and Monterey Counties to the healing power of horses.
The Horse Whispers barn is a healing space that fosters growth, community and connection in all participants. We are a non-profit that facilitates positive experiences that allow the feedback from the horses to be heard by humans. We believe that our equine partners have much to teach us about being present and aware of the energy we carry.
When we go to the barn to be with horses we are invited to slow down our busy lives and be more present. The outdoor experience allows us to recalibrate our pace and honor our animal instincts so we can attune more closely to the natural cycles of the earth.
Horse Whispers aims to heal people and the planet using the knowledge and wisdom of both nature and our equine family.

Donations
Everyone who has been around horses knows that they are expensive! Minor medical issues, supplements, shoes, fencing and other farm repairs; the costs add up! Any monetary donations will be utilized to continue the program. No amount is too small!
