What our participants are saying
“There's just something so
wonderful about when
children get to work with
animals. It just brings out
another side of them that
you don't always get to
see. So I know personally
I've seen miracles.”
“I want to thank SRD for
making me a better
person, for helping me
cope with my depression
and anxiety, and just
welcoming me.”
“My daughter comes to the ranch. She comes about four times a week. If she could come every day, she would.”
