Mission and Urgency:

Horses Healing Hearts is on a mission to provide transformative experiences for children, enabling them to break free from the cycle of addiction through equine-assisted programs. In the wake of the opioid and fentanyl crisis, the organization's services have become increasingly critical. With over 11 million children affected by addiction in the United States, HHH offers a lifeline by implementing a proven model that has successfully helped hundreds of kids in Palm Beach County.

Proven Impact:

HHH's programs are built upon a distinctive equine-assisted model with far-reaching benefits. Scientifically validated for lowering cortisol (the stress hormone) in children, the presence of horses fosters the cultivation of vital life skills. (WSU Cortisol Reduction in Youth "Horsing Around"). HHH participants are mentored and learn to trust and feel while they work with and ride horses. The program also facilitates positive life skills development, which in turn, empowers children to establish a healthy lifestyle, breaking the generational cycle of addiction. HHH's preventive impact extends beyond its immediate participants, creating an epigenetic effect that makes future generations less likely to misuse drugs or alcohol.

Call to Action:

As HHH's vital work continues, the organization looks forward to partnering with and receiving support from like-minded organizations committed to improving the health and welfare of youth across the nation.

Supporters have a unique opportunity to contribute to this transformative cause by sponsoring or attending the upcoming 10th Annual Denim & Diamonds Gala on Thursday, February 22nd, 2024 from 6:30-10:30 pm at BMW Delray Beach.
