Dear Friends,
Celebrating our 10th anniversary this year, Free Rein Foundation was founded in 2014 by Dr. Carole Harris, a psychotherapist and equine therapist, who had a profound belief in the healing abilities of horses. Dr. Harris enlisted the support of her twin sister Mary Behrens, who owns and operates the Huntington Central Park Equestrian Center, and the three of us got to work rescuing horses and offering equine therapy to vulnerable groups.
Over the past decade, our organization has operated solely through the dedication of our volunteers. Thanks to them, we’ve been able to rescue and rehabilitate abused horses, and provide equine-assisted therapy to various groups, including at-promise youth and veterans.
