THERAPEUTIC FARM
Restoring lives by promoting
H.O.P.E.
Healing, Order, Peace, and Encouragement.
We, here at H.O.P.E. – full Pastures love children and serve families who have endured childhood trauma, including loss, neglect, abandonment, and abuse.
Animals provide a purely non-judgmental space for our program kids to work out their problems. Evidence proves that interacting with animals has resulted in behavioral improvement in children.
The unspoken connection one can have with an animal can help aid in the healing process. The presence of animals themselves is soothing and can more quickly build rapport between an advocate and program child.
