Through animal assisted activities such as: horseback riding, farm animal interactions & fishing, the children and youth learn morale and values that they are not typically exposed to. The craft activities at Casey's Place also act as spiritual healing for the children and teach the children about spirituality, feelings, life skills and hope. Beyond the teachings, Casey's Place has acted as a vacation spot for youth to go learn, heal their souls, have hope in humanity, maintain friendships, feel what it's like to love and be loved and most of all, HAVE A BLAST with no worries attached.
