Description
Michelle Nash, herself a cancer survivor, has had a heart for using equine therapy and helping those in need since she was a child. At the age of twelve, she envisioned a place of hope….a place where children and adults could pair with horses to aid in their spiritual, physical and mental healing. Since then, Michelle’s vision has developed into a reality. Starting with a handful of abused and neglected children and now encompassing those with medical illness and handicaps, Michelle’s dream in now the Haven of Hope Ranch.
Haven of Hope has created a place where hope can truly be found. Through learning to trust a large animal and building confidence children find healing, hope, empowerment and God’s love. In addition to providing an outreach to the community, Haven of Hope is also unique in that a portion of our horses have also come from neglectful and/or abusive environments
