Hometown Heroes, Inc. serves as the umbrella organization for camping programming serving children facing extreme trauma. Camp Hometown Heroes welcomes children, ages 7-17, who embody the statement “Freedom is not free.” They have made the ultimate sacrifice of losing a loved one who has served in the armed forces and died fighting in combat. Serving children from all over the country, including Hawaii and Alaska, at a vast camp location in Campbellsport, WI (known as Turning Rivers), the campers are taken through a journey of healing through play, therapy and bonding. Hometown Heroes, Inc. has recently expanded its programming to serve children who have an incarcerated parent in the Wisconsin Criminal System, and through trauma-based and art therapy called Camp Reunite.
