About Mustard Seed Ranch
Mustard Seed Ranch is a charitable nonprofit organization that provides equine assisted therapy and life-experience programs to abused and neglected youth in Southern California. Today, Mustard Seed Ranch reaches kids through its current program locations in Orange, Riverside and San Diego counties, and continues to expand in order to reach the growing need for this program.
“This was the first time in her life she felt safe enough to tell her story out loud. First to her horse, then to us. As hard as it was for her to talk about being abandoned and rejected by her family, it was the first step in her healing.”
Mustard Seed Ranch fills a critical need for therapeutic programs that are often lacking in foster care and group home settings. We provide a safe and nurturing environment and caring treatment that is child centered, family focused, and community based.
Our Mission Statement
To break the cycle of child abuse by providing abused and neglected youth a safe environment to heal and equipping them with the physical, emotional, and spiritual skills to lead healthy, productive lives.
Our Core Values
- Restoring Childhoods
- Strengthening Families
- Engaging Communities
We work in collaboration with community partners to offer our program to their youth. We also provide training for their staff to ensure they have the benefit of experiencing our program. Training equips them with the skills to help the kids in their care as they begin to explore and express their life issues.
