Hoofprints To Hope

Hoofprints To Hope The goal of Hoofprints to Hope is to promote growth and healing for at-risk and/or underprivileged youth. Horses listen to our hurt, anger, and fear.

Hoofprints to Hope exists to help children and families find hope and healing through hands-on experience with horses in a safe Christian environment. Horses are amazing teachers, as well as outstanding listeners. They teach us how to communicate with others, resolve conflict, face our fears (“For God did not give us a spirit of fearfulness, but a spirit of power, love and self-discipline” 2 Timothy 1:7), trust others and ourselves, and increase our self-confidence. They teach us how to have compassion and patience with others. They feel the pain and trauma that we have endured in our lives. Horses do not lie; they are a mirror into our souls. Horses accept us for exactly who we are, no questions asked. Christy Falink is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and has been trained and certified through EAGALA, the leading international nonprofit association for professionals using equine therapy to address mental health needs. Christy has over 20 years of experience working with children and families in mental health and addiction treatment centers, schools, churches, and equine-facilitated therapy programs. Christy has owned, cared for and competed on horses her entire life. She combines her love and passion for horses with her vast experience as a mental health professional to reach out to others who are hurting by showing them God’s love through the gentle touch of a horse.

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11.

Sometimes all you need is to get in the saddle and feel the wind on your face, your heart beating in rhythm with the hooves. 🐎
In those moments, the world grows quiet. No worries, no rush — just you, your horse, and the freedom that smells like open fields and sunsets. 🌅

Because sometimes, words aren’t needed. All I want to do is ride. 💛

✨There’s something about the sound of quiet chewing in the stillness.
🐎The way a horse just stands there — not trying to fix you, just being with you.
✨And suddenly, the weight you’ve been carrying doesn’t feel quite so heavy.

No one asks you to explain yourself.
No one hurries you along.
You’re just allowed to be — messy, tired, joyful, anxious, human.

The barn doesn’t care if you cried on the way there.
It welcomes you anyway.
And the horses?
They listen with their whole heart.

It’s not therapy.
But it’s a kind of medicine.
The kind that reaches places words can’t always touch💕
