About A Sanctuary for Military Families Inc (d/b/a Project Sanctuary)

A Sanctuary for Military Families Inc (d/b/a Project Sanctuary) is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 26-1410596) that delivers evidence-based, family-centered services through multi-day therapeutic retreats and extended family support. The organization’s model combines licensed counseling, Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialists (CTRS), and recreation-based activities to help service members, spouses, caregivers, and children restore relationships and build coping skills.

In the last 2–3 years Project Sanctuary secured a permanent retreat campus (Pagosa Springs, CO, acquired December 2023), established an operating reserve, and received multiple multi-year grants to expand programming and long-term supports. Recent impact data (reported in the 2023 annual materials) show robust demand and program reach: 20 retreats and 206 families served in 2023, 690 individuals served that year, 399 personalized family cases opened in 2023, and over 9,000 individuals served across the organization’s history as reported in its impact materials.
