About HHH Ranch
Creating a healing space for people and animals
Established 2015
Welcome to HHH Ranch — a haven where healing and hope flourish for both people and animals. Here, individuals navigating physical, emotional, or behavioral challenges discover confidence and connection through riding lessons, farm classes, Equine Assisted Learning, and enriching camps. Our rescue horses and Stable Moments–certified mentors help participants express themselves beyond words, fostering trust and growth.
We extend that same compassion to animals in need—rescuing horses from neglect, abandonment, and slaughter auctions, offering them refuge, rehabilitation, and purpose. Some become partners in our programs, while others find loving forever homes.
Beyond the ranch, we welcome the community through open ranch days, field trips, and private events—and even bring our potty-trained ponies to elders who can’t visit.
At HHH Ranch, every heart—human and horse alike—has a place to heal, grow, and belong.
Mission & Vision
Mission
HHH creates a sanctuary for people and animals alike to heal and flourish, whether they are on an emotional, behavioral, physical, or mental journey.
Vision
HHH sees a community without barriers where everyone is welcomed, accepted, and celebrated.
Our Story
HHH Ranch was born from a twenty-year dream rooted in faith, resilience, and a calling to help people and animals heal together.
It began when our founder, then a high school student searching for purpose, prayed for a sign—and moments later saw a billboard reading, “Call Good Samaritans Boys Ranch Today.” That call set her on a lifelong path of service.
From volunteering at therapeutic ranches to training in program development in Madrid, to advocating for individuals with disabilities in Illinois, each step shaped the vision for HHH Ranch.
Our Methodologies
At HHH Ranch, we blend horse rescue with human healing through evidence-based, heart-centered programs. We believe that when humans and horses connect, both lives are transformed.
Our team continually pursues professional training and certifications to ensure the highest standard of care. Our programs include:
Stable Moments® – A nationally recognized mentorship model for children ages 3–22 in foster care or post-adoption, supporting emotional regulation, social connection, and communication through consistent, relationship-based sessions.
Horse Powered Reading® & Math® – Innovative, internationally recognized programs that merge academics with emotional development through equine-assisted learning.
Takin’ Equine Integration, Movement Method, & Horse Boy Method – Internationally acclaimed approaches using movement, sensory engagement, and horse connection to support individuals with autism, trauma, and developmental challenges.
At HHH Ranch, our methodologies honor both science and spirit—creating a space where learning, growth, and healing go hand in hand.
Looking Ahead
HHH Ranch is expanding to open a second location — a safe haven for young women in crisis. This new space will provide comprehensive, individualized care, allowing residents to stay as long as they need — whether three weeks or three months — to build the tools and resilience needed to thrive.
The safe haven will offer diverse modalities of healing, including:
Equine-assisted therapy
Art and movement therapy
Reiki
Traditional counseling
And even a rage room— a unique outlet for safely releasing anger and emotion in a controlled environment.
Our goal is simple yet profound: to help every young woman understand that she is worthy, valued, and not alone.
