New Vocations Racehorse Adoption Program

New Vocations Racehorse Adoption Program has a long history of transitioning retiring racehorses into second careers when their days on the track come to an end. Since 1992, we’ve focused on the rehabilitation, retraining, and rehoming of these horses to qualified and loving adopters.

We’ve transitioned more than 9,000 retired Thoroughbred and Standardbred racehorses from more than 70 different racetracks into second careers with experienced, educated, and appropriate adopters throughout the country. 

We retrain and rehome Thoroughbreds from our main base in Lexington, KY; Medina, OH; Hummelstown, PA; Covington, LA; and Ocala, FL. We focus on Standardbreds from two Ohio locations — New Carlisle, and Richwood — and we have both Standardbreds and Thoroughbreds at our Gansevoort, NY, facility.

New Vocations Racehorse Adoption Program is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Its tax identification number is 31-1681380. In 2022 it earned a Platinum Seal of Transparency with Candid.
