Over 10 years ago God put a desire in Torey's heart to use horses to bring healing to children with emotional and behavioral problems. While developing the HorsePower program, she and her husband Mike decided to become foster adopt parents. Both pursuits focused on helping hurt children. Having owned and shown horses in her youth, connecting with a grad student at Washburn University to create a study on HorsePower and pursuing NARHA certification all culminated in the creation of the HorsePower program, helping hundreds of children through the years. Torey is a foster adoptive parent and works for Alter Counseling as a Family Support Specialist.
