Nora Cohen

Nora is the President of BIG Heart Ranch, a nature-based community wellness center and rescued farm animal sanctuary, where she developed the Rescue, Renew, Reconnect model. This innovative program provides youth with purposeful interactions with rehabilitated farm animals, helping them build emotional resilience, process trauma, and strengthen personal connections.

With over thirteen years of leadership experience, Nora has witnessed the transformative power of these animals in guiding teens on their healing journey. She is deeply committed to empowering teens to grow, heal, and thrive through animal-assisted therapy.
