St. George's supports the Welcome Home Initiative retreats at Christ the King Center in Greenwich, NY. The retreat program helps veterans and spouses understand the hidden impact of combat and trauma, and provides a safe place for emotional healing. This essential spiritual and emotional healing is a complement to healing received from psychiatric and social services.
