New VocationsRacehorse Adoption Program

The entire staff at New Vocations would like to express our sincere gratitude to The ASPCA (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) for their generous support.

New Vocations, along with seven other Thoroughbred rescue organizations, has joined the ASPCA Million Dollar Rescuing Racers Initiative. This vital program, which has been made possible through a generous, private donor, was established to provide retired racehorses with the chance for rehabilitation and transitioning into a new, positive life away from the track.

The ASPCA grant will enable New Vocations to take in an additional 40 injured Thoroughbreds over the next twelve months to rehabilitate, retrain, and re-home. Since 1992, New Vocations has offered retiring racehorses a safe-haven, rehabilitation, and continued education through placement in qualified, caring homes. New Vocations has adopted out more than 3,000 horses since our inception, and this year we are projected to re-home roughly 400 Thoroughbreds and Standardbreds.
