The original US Horse Welfare and Rescue Organization, a 501(c)3, was founded in 2016 but its founder quickly saw the need for an umbrella organization which would serve as a protective mantel over our equines, to lobby for laws which will be intolerant of slaughter, abuse, and neglect....and further band rescues and horse welfare advocates together. On October 9, 2020, US Horse Welfare and Rescue National Coalition (USHWR-NC) formally filed papers of incorporation and 501(c)4 status, providing us with the legal reach to lobby for a better world for America's horses, wild and domesticated. The National Coalition equally reaches out through our advocacy and supportive programs to providing for our horses, their owners, and the nonprofit rescues when in need. USHWR-NC stands to provide America's horses with
ONE UNIFIED VOICE.

USHWR-NC serves to unify and empower Americans to lend their voices to all of America’s horses, and further encourages participation in the protection of our horses from abuse, neglect, and slaughter through programs and the engagement of Local, State, and Federal legislators to pass the SAFE Act and other bills as deemed appropriate for the protection of America's horses.
