Saddling Up for the Future: Unhitched Ranches Internship Program

With 2.2 million equestrian careers waiting to be filled and nearly 2 million ranches across the U.S., the opportunities in the horse industry are wide open. At Unhitched Ranches, we’re riding ahead with an internship initiative designed for foster youth ages 17-25 who are stepping into independence.

This isn’t just any internship—it’s a boots-on-the-ground, hands-on experience where young adults gain the skills, confidence, and connections they need to build real careers in ranching, equine care, and agricultural industries. Our program is more than job training; it’s a holistic path to independence, blending career development, personal growth, and mentorship to help young riders navigate life’s next big transition.

We’re here to help them find their footing in the saddle and in life—because every great journey starts with the right first step (or hoofbeat)
