Never Stop Believing in your Dreams

NEVER STOP BELIEVING IN YOUR DREAMS

When I think about the good-old west, Montana comes to mind. It is a place where horses run free, blue topped mountain tops with cascades of white drifting down into pastures of green, gentle rivers flowing effortlessly down stream while casual floaters carelessly drift past, under the summer sun, and where a handshake still means something. This is what I think of when I think about what Montana is and what it means to me. A perfect place to build a ranch.

The Jewels’ Angles Foundation, Inc.’s – Jewels’ Angels Ranch. I thought it would be fun to share our building journey with you. The grand opening of the Jewels’ Angels’ Emotional Support Horse Therapy Ranch has moved to June 2025. We have broken ground in Anaconda, Montana. We will continue to update you on our progress, and we hope you will follow us through this process, on this exciting expedition.

Our program is set up to target teens between the ages of ten and eighteen years of age, who would benefit from working side by side with a rescue horse and team mentor. We will be teaching our clients about developing stronger self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-empowerment skills, while learning the benefits of quality time, exploring nature, on a horse ranch, surrounded by love, kindness and the gentleness of a soft, wet nose sniffing your hand – a time for self-reflection. You do not need to be struggling with suicidal ideations or thoughts to be a part of our program; however, we will be strongly focusing on this area.

Horse therapy offers many benefits, both physical and emotional, offering a non-verbal communication between a horse and a teen by strengthening the emotional bond, allowing them to communicate without words:

Physical benefits

  • Balance
  • Muscle building
  • Strength
  • Relaxation

   Emotional benefits

  • Building self-esteem
  • Empowerment
  • Patience
  • Regaining trust
  • Feeling acceptance
  • Improved concentration
  • Self-respect
  • Confidence

Horse therapy allows individuals to learn to live in the present by spending time outdoors and with nature, bringing comfort back into their lives and broadening their senses.

Studies show that interacting with a horse is to deal with their mood swings, attitudes, and unique personalities, making their temperament like that of a teenager during their adolescent years.

Our program provides a healthy and healing atmosphere for the teen and young adult, allowing them to bond and connect with a horse trained for emotional healing, with an emphasis on educating about the importance of establishing a healthy, mental well-being, as an alternative to making poor choices; by providing them with a sense of belonging and self-love.

We offer supportive, boys, girls, and co-ed groups, led by dynamic, responsible, and well-trained leaders, including our horses, teaching teens the ability to learn about themselves individually through acceptance and personal growth.

Please continue to follow us on our journey as we maintain our exploration into the exciting world of building a ranch in Montana.
