When a serviceperson is deployed a family goes to war.

Statistics published in December 2007 at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs indicate that 21 military veterans per week commit suicide. RAND Corporation estimates that approximately 300,000 troops deployed are suffering from depression or post-traumatic stress from serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Effects of deployment on children are even more staggering.

Backed by funding from the U.S. Army Medical Research and Material Command, researchers harvested data from the U.S. Army Central Registry of 1,771 families worldwide with at least one instance of child neglect or abuse between September 2001 and December 2004.

During the deployment period, maltreatment tripled, neglect quadrupled, and physical abuse nearly doubled.

Government statistics indicate that in 2004, 1.1 million children (under the age of 18) were maltreated in enlisted soldiers’ families.

Project Sanctuary Is Where Families Reconnect

Our Recreational Therapy and supportive environment offer a constructive and unique way for our nation's heroes to reconnect with loved ones and readjust to life at home. We use diversion therapy techniques through recreation along with classes focused on healthy marriage,  and finances  A licensed counselor is available at all times during each retreat.

We Stay in Touch with Families for Two Years

Our retreats help put families on the path to healthy, happy home lives but that is just the first step in a long and difficult journey. That's why we make a commitment to every family to continually offer support, healing and guidance for at least two years.

Since 2007, We've Been Serving the Heroes Who Serve Our Country

Project Sanctuary was founded with the belief that the best way to support our men and women serving in Iraq and Afghanistan is by supporting the whole family. Our recreational therapy breaks through walls and fosters an environment of healing where great memories are born and new support systems are formed.
