Coming Home Project is a non-profit organization devoted to providing expert consultation for community-based organizations that address collective and individual trauma. We also serve communities that promote social, economic, racial and environmental justice, helping participants, employees and leaders with custom-designed, culturally sensitive, integrative training that enhances wellbeing, builds self-care skills, counteracts compassion fatigue and burnout, and promotes collaboration, success, and sustainability.

With ten years experience providing leading-edge integrative trauma care, Coming Home Project has broad expertise in post-traumatic stress, wellness, and in cultivating and sustaining communities of healing, learning, and resistance.

Feedback from Program Participants

I would recommend this retreat to every OEF/OIF veteran or service member. This is the type of community building experience we need. This has changed my life!

-Participant of a Military & Veteran Family Retreat

I’d never had the chance to share with other combat vets since I left the Army shortly after I returned from deployment. Thank you for the opportunity to share my experiences in a safe and accepting environment.

-Participant of a Women’s Retreat

Talking with participants was important because I have felt alone and isolated over the last year; to see so many together that share the similar feelings and experiences was positive for me.
