Hope Haven is a non-profit therapeutic riding centre that provides equine-assisted services for individuals of all ages with disabilities or unique needs. With support from the Wellness Innovation Fund, Hope Haven created The Haven, an accessible outdoor wellness space designed specifically for caregivers to rest, recharge and reconnect with themselves while surrounded by nature and horses.
Funding helped transform an existing area into a dedicated space where caregivers can step away from their responsibilities and take time for their own well-being. The Haven provides a peaceful, accessible environment where caregivers can pause, reflect and enjoy a moment of calm, extending Hope Haven’s impact beyond program participants to the people who care for them.
The space primarily benefits caregivers of individuals with disabilities, while also providing a welcoming place for volunteers and members of the broader Hope Haven community. By recognizing that caregiver well-being is an important part of a healthy support system, The Haven creates opportunities for rest and renewal.
What makes The Haven unique is its nature-based, self-guided approach. Rather than another structured program, it offers caregivers the freedom to use the space in whatever way feels meaningful to them, whether that means sitting quietly, spending time outdoors or simply taking a moment for themselves.
Through The Haven, wellness extends beyond the riding arena, creating space for caregivers to recharge while surrounded by the calming presence of nature and horses.
