A forever home to horses that had been abused, neglected, injured or simply unwanted, Tierra Madre Horse Sanctuary is a place that gives each unique animal a chance to both heal from traumatic experiences and learn to trust again. Roeckner originally intended to stay long enough to complete a community service project for her school, but soon enough, she found herself connected to each of the horses and inspired by the way they loved life despite their pasts.
