Not Horsing Around

About

Is this dark horse a solution to America’s mental health crisis? Sally Mixon, founder of Abijah’s on the Backside, joins host Roshini Rakjumar to discuss how her trailblazing organization is transforming lives by taking retired horses, deemed to have no value, and turning them into mental health miracle workers for humans. By pairing off-track thoroughbreds with counseling professionals, this experiential equestrian program provides life-changing outcomes for first responders, veterans, children, and other clients trying to find hope from the depths of despair. Find out how this first-of-its-kind program, located at Canterbury Park in Shakopee, Minnesota, provides an innovative approach to community wellness.
