Mission

Just Say Whoa® to Bullying is an innovative program and the first of its kind to teach bullying prevention using animal-assisted activities with miniature therapy horses. Our unique presentation teaches bullying prevention by helping children to recognize and respect the differences in one another. By understanding that everyone has something valuable to offer, children learn acceptance, tolerance, respect, and understanding of others. By instilling these core values and encouraging good character, our program builds a foundation of understanding and promotes a positive social environment, which – in turn – fosters kindness and good citizenship. In fact, research has shown that school-based bullying prevention programs like Just Say Whoa® to Bullying decrease bullying by up to 25%.
