We all so long for the Norman Rockwell holiday gathering at Christmas, both parents and even grandparents seated with obedient children, heads bowed around an abundant table or cheerfully opening gifts around a Christmas tree.

But the truth is that most families today experience everything from anxiety to sorrow or grief over family member estrangements making the holidays a painful reminder of how far our reality is from the desired state.

One of the problems causing such estrangement is PTSD in the Veteran community. In fact, The Veterans Health Administration estimates that 44 veterans take their own lives daily, a tragedy indeed for the men and women who fought for our freedom.

Now before you tune out thinking this show is a downer, let me tell you that we are here to talk about a place called Camp Hope and the redemption and restoration almost 16,000 combat veterans have found through their outreach and programs since its founding in 2012.

My guest today is Billy Graff whose full time job is Chaplain and Clinical Director at Camp Hope for the PTSD Foundation of America. Listen to how Camp Hope redeems families and fathers!
