Amy Harris
Instructor, First Responder and Veterans Program
I am originally from the Washington, DC area and moved to North Carolina 1998 and live in Wake Forest with my husband and two dogs. Having retired from my career in Human Resources, I now get to spend more time in my life-long passion for horses. I joined Helping Horse in 2023 as an instructor in the First Responder / Veterans program and love witnessing every day the profound way that these incredible animals help humans through their strong, calming presence.
If I were a horse, my name would probably be Spud, and my favorite food would be French fries.

See how Helping Horse is making a difference in people lives.
We LOVE Helping Horse. It is an AMAZING program for children with disabilities…it shows them a different way of life; just because they are disabled doesn’t mean they can’t enjoy that way of life. You guys have been a gift from God! We love you!
Riding has helped Kate respond faster and talk loud enough for the horses to hear commands like "walk on!" Each week she meets her horse, Del, at the gate and is ready to ride. Helping Horse really is an awe-inspiring program.
We love Helping Horse! Being able to see Cassie's joy and love for the horses, the therapeutic riding activities, and the people brings us immeasurable feelings of belonging to a group of people who connects with ALL of our family... Let's just say that being included altogether is never taken for granted and creates the very best memories!
