    How Horse Well-Being is Embedded in the United States Pony Clubs Curriculum

    The United States Pony Clubs (USPC or Pony Club) has long been recognized as the premier educator of young horse people, focusing on exemplary horse care and exceptional horse management. Aligning with other horse organizations to promote and ensure horse well-being within the USPC organization, a team of horse professionals, including two equine veterinarians, was established as the USPC Horse Welfare and Social License Task Force. One of the results of this task force was the development of a horse well-being framework to incorporate into the USPC community and, eventually, into USPC curriculum.
