Apaches's Angels needs volunteers to assist with Christian equine-assisted therapy. We offer physical therapy on horses to people with special needs. Volunteer opportunities include walking alongside a horse to steady the rider, help in the barn, and leading the horse during the session. No experience is needed to volunteer, but we do ask that you are at least 15 years of age.
