Our Mission

The mission of America’s Wild Horse Advocates (AWHA) is to:

Promote the preservation, protection and welfare of wild horses and burros on Public Lands.

Provide input to the managing agencies in the monitoring, assessment, management, and humane oversight of wild horses and burros on the range and in holding areas.

Engage in educational outreach to students and to the public-at-large concerning the nature, history, needs and humane uses of wild horses and burros through various means, including live horse demonstrations.

Explore, obtain, and coordinate sources for funding, including memberships, donations, grants, fairs, and other fund raising activities.

Our primary current focus is on placing wild horses into public service programs suitable for their adaptability and capabilities.
