Nonprofit therapeutic ranch serving Tucson, Arizona
Two Lane Tucson — Episode 1
In this episode, I sit down with McKinley Madril from Therapeutic Ranch for Animals and Kids (TRAK) to talk about how the ranch began, what it makes possible for the people they serve, and what daily life looks like behind the scenes. We discuss how families find TRAK, where growth feels constrained, and why hands-on education is central to their work. The conversation offers a grounded look at what it takes to sustain this kind of organization in Tucson.
Therapeutic Ranch for Animals and Kids (TRAK) is a Tucson-based nonprofit providing animal-assisted therapeutic programs for children and adults, including individuals with special needs, first responders, veterans, and families. Their work focuses on building confidence, communication, and independence through hands-on experiences with animals in a ranch setting.
