The Model

Peace Ranch employs the Neuro-Sequential Model using an
experiential framework with horses in a natural environment.

Perry’s Neuro-sequential Model

Sponsor a Horse

The Rescue Horses at Peace Ranch are in full-time service to the community, helping children and families in crisis, Military/EMS, and anyone in need.

They deserve the best we can give them.
