The mission of Horses Offering Opportunities for the Future, Inc. (HOOF KY) is to connect at-risk, disadvantaged youth to horses and let horses work their magic.  Horses have the ability to touch the human spirit in ways not found in other relationships.  They can break down emotional walls and barriers of distrust, isolation, and manipulation as the young participants interact with and take stewardship of the horses. 

​

This  human-equine interaction teaches respect, responsibility, discipline, and  personal empowerment.  These attributes prepare our HOOF KY participants to make positive  choices that lead to productive and healthy life styles.
