Prisoners Help with Horse Rehabilitation

At a community re-entry facility in Rockwell City, Iowa, neglected animals and prison inmates on the verge of release are helping each other reintegrate into society. Rescued horses like Silver Bullet and Sport are rehabilitated by prisoners to get healthy and to have their faith restored in people after suffering neglect and abuse at human hands. In return, the inmates are given the opportunity to learn similar tenants themselves by adopting responsibilities and forming bonds of compassion, with human and animal "teaching each other to care."
