Detroit Public School Teacher Connects Students With Horses
Detroit Public School teacher, David Silver, created Detroit Horse Power to help students learn everything from patience to confidence.
Ann Delisi talks with David Silver about his experience as a Detroit Public School teacher, what he learned about what his students were lacking and how interacting with horses could help them. He launched Detroit Horse Power as a way to bring horses into the lives of children whose situations prevent them from gaining the life skills they need and want.
This year, Detroit Horse Power secured an 18-acre piece of land in Detroit from DPS, that will become the new permanent home of Detroit Horse Power. It will be a $5 million dollar facility that will provide unique and impactful experiences to change the lives of Detroit Public School kids.
