The facility opened in 2012 and is located in a quiet and safe setting in Houston, Texas, where veterans and their immediate family members can find healing, help, and hope while benefitting from an intensive peer support and mentoring program for combat-related post-traumatic stress. In addition to temporary housing, Camp Hope offers a minimum of a 5-month program that includes a 1-month transitional program in which residents attend group lessons and support sessions with other combat veterans, conduct individual mentoring sessions with certified combat trauma mentors, participate in off-site small group interaction activities (i.e., fishing, camping, local activities and sporting events); and get involved with local churches, businesses, and volunteer organizations to assist in their personal healing and educating the community on the invisible wounds of war.
