Welcome to Touching Smiles!!!

Mini Horses, Major Miracles 

Touching Smiles is comprised of a group of very special volunteers who share a love of horses and a sincere desire to help others.

Touching Smiles Equine Therapy, Inc. is a 501(c)3 recognized nonprofit organization that brings miniature horses to children and adults. Through direct contact with these wonderfully perceptive creatures, we see increased self-esteem, self-awareness, and self-control. It has been shown that animal-assisted therapy can improve physical, emotional, cognitive, and social skills for those with special needs. Interaction with the minis of Touching Smiles brings joy to people in nursing homes, other healthcare, and educational facilities.

There are no fees for our services; Touching Smiles is entirely volunteer and dependent upon donations.
