One Stride at a Time

Volunteers ages 13 and up are the backbone of our programming and every participant at Harnessing Hope is partnered with one throughout the duration of their class. Some participants even need multiple volunteers for success. 

There are positions available for:

• horse handlers
• side walkers 
• arena assistants
• able bodied whips (for driving)
• horse headers (for driving)
• EAL assistants 
• Facility and barn assistants 
• Off-site programming assistants 

No horse experience is required, but we ask that volunteers be able to work in all conditions, lift things like saddles or hay bales, and can converse socially and responsibly with our clientele. Volunteers generally start out as a side-walker or arena assistant to gain insight into the program. 

Some volunteers like to sign up for recurring weekly spots on the schedule, and others just like to be notified of vacancies or one time events- we appreciate any and all your time you are able to give to Harnessing Hope!  Please contact us today for a volunteer release form and to get on our schedule.
