The young people at Assurance Home are involved in an exciting endeavor to 'gentle' and work with recently captured, green broke, wild Mustangs. These incredible little horses will eventually become therapeutic riding horses for handicapped riding programs around the country.

Involvement in this project offers our children enormous opportunities to encounter and meet satisfying challenges in their lives. Working with the horses teaches our youngsters patience, trust, self-awareness and accomplishment. It also gives them a sense of "specialness". Not many of today's youth are involved in activities like this.

Mustangs are trained to become therapeutic riding horses for handicapped children.
