Evolving U.S. Equine Industry Practices and Policies to Improve Horse Welfare Outcomes in the U.S
Let’s Talk about the problem
American Horses Are Facing a Welfare Crisis—They Have Fewer Protections than Cows, Pigs, Goats, and Sheep—And They Need Our Help.
Horses’ Strong Contributions to Industry—Paired with the Close Bonds and Connections People Share with Them—Leave Them in Legal Limbo.
They face documented, consistent abuses and suffering during and after their participation in industry, with little institutional oversight, accountability, and welfare enforcement. Our capabilities aim to address these concerns.
What We do
The Horse Welfare Collective Foundation Brings Transparency to U.S. Horse Industry Practices and Policies that Contribute to Negative Horse Welfare Outcomes.
We research and provide insights into horse industry practices and policies that contribute to negative horse welfare outcomes in the U.S., and raise awareness about why these practices and policies create unnecessary equine suffering. We advise organizations on how to navigate complex horse welfare issues—and identify practical solutions they can implement—to meaningfully improve horse welfare outcomes and evolve horse welfare standards.
