FOR 29 YEARS, OUR DEDICATED TEAM OF INSTRUCTORS, VOLUNTEERS, AND THERAPISTS HAS OFFERED A VARIETY OF ACCESSIBLE AND INDIVIDUALIZED EQUINE ASSISTED ACTIVITIES AND THERAPIES, EACH SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO EMPOWER, INSPIRE, AND ENRICH. THROUGH THE POWERFUL BOND BETWEEN HORSE AND RIDER, WE ASSIST OUR PARTICIPANTS IN THRIVING IN THEIR DAILY LIVES. MANY ACCOMPLISHMENTS WERE MADE IN 2022.

TO FULFILL OUR PARTICIPANTS' NEEDS, WE RELY ON A TEAM OF DEDICATED VOLUNTEERS. VOLUNTEERS PLAY AN INSTRUMENTAL ROLE IN THE PROVISION OF SERVICES, HELPING TO ASSIST RIDERS BY ENSURING THEIR SAFETY DURING THE RIDING LESSON. IN ADDITION TO OUR INSTRUCTORS, AS MANY AS THREE VOLUNTEERS MAY BE REQUIRED TO ASSIST EACH RIDER. IN ANY GIVEN YEAR, VOLUNTEERS DONATE BETWEEN 3,500-5,000 HOURS TO SUPPORT OUR PARTICIPANTS. TODAY, MORE THAN 250 INDIVIDUALS SEEKING TO GAIN CONFIDENCE, STRENGTH, AND INDEPENDENCE PARTICIPATE IN OUR PROGRAM. WE RECEIVE REFERRALS FROM TETON COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT, MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION, C-V RANCH (A SCHOOL FOR CHILDREN WITH EMOTIONAL, BEHAVIORAL AND PHYSICAL NEEDS), COMMUNITY ENTRY SERVICES (AN ADVOCACY AND SERVICE ORGANIZATION FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES), LINCOLN SELF RELIANCE, ST. JOHN'S HEALTH SENIOR LIVING, AND MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY. TOGETHER, OUR HARDWORKING HORSES, DEDICATED VOLUNTEERS, AND KNOWLEDGEABLE STAFF HELP TO EMPOWER ABILITY AND MAXIMIZE POTENTIAL. LOOKING TO THE FUTURE, JHTR SEEKS TO UPGRADE ITS FACILITY AND ACQUIRE PASTURE OF ITS OWN. CURRENTLY, JHTR DEPENDS ON THE GENEROSITY OF LOCAL COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO PROVIDE PASTURE FROM APRIL THROUGH OCTOBER. HORSES ARE TRANSPORTED TO LANDER, WY DURING THE WINTER MONTHS WHERE THEY ARE BOARDED AT 200-300 PER MONTH PER HORSE. BY UPGRADING OUR FACILITY AND ACQUIRING PASTURE OF OUR OWN, JHTR WILL BE EQUIPPED TO PROVIDE CONSISTENT, YEAR-ROUND PROGRAMMING TO OUR PARTICIPANTS WHO SO GREATLY DEPEND ON OUR SERVICES.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2022 – Dec 31, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$281.5K
