God’s Mission for
PHR
Praying Hands Ranches Inc. (PHR) is committed to meeting the needs of mentally, emotionally
and physically challenged children and adults in a ranch environment therapeutic
center. Using physical and occupational therapists, trained riding instructors
and loving volunteers we strive to achieve rehabilitation using equine,
horticultural, and small animal therapies, as well as peer tutor programs. Our
primary task is giving all students an opportunity to grow mentally, physically
and emotionally strong, gain self esteem, become independent, learn to care for
others, be courageous enough to overcome fears and achieve a better quality of
life overall.
PHR is a community involved operation.
It is privileged to be supported and recommended by Children’s
Hospital, local churches, businesses, civic groups, Scouts and 4-H groups plus
the numerous Eagle Scouts projects.
Volunteers are the backbone of all PHR programs with
50 to 60 volunteers offering their time, talents, and love to all the PHR
special needs folks each week.
