Thank You Speaker Cristi Silverberg-Rose, Director of Bethany's Gait Ranch

Quoted from Bethanygait.org, Cristi's presentation and Edited by Lisa DeLeo 

Cristi Silverberg-Rose is the Founder and Executive Director of Bethany's Gait Ranch in Chino Valley.

"Bethany’s Gait is a 501(c)3 non-profit ranch in Prescott, Arizona dedicated to “Rescuing Horses, Restoring Lives.”  

The Ranch's mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and restore the lives of military (active & veteran), first responders, their families, and horses in need.

"Our ranch is nestled in Williamson Valley with spectacular views of Granite Mountain and the surrounding area, providing for a peaceful, private environment.  One of the things that makes our program unique is that we are also a horse rescue. 

We have found bringing the rescue horses together with the people offers a dynamic situation where horse and human heal through a bond that is developed based on unconditional love, unwavering trust and a keen understanding of what the other has been through."

Cristi has owned horses her entire life and knows the true gift they have to offer humans.

She is married to a Marine Corps Veteran who served 24 years. They have two grown sons; the oldest is a Marine Corps Cobra Pilot and the youngest is a Navy Seal.
