The Come Home Project is a Marine Corps Veteran ran non-profit that strengthens the Warrior-Spouse relationship.
Together John and Samantha are using their personal experiences to combat the problems that lead to divorce in military couples across the country. The Come Home Project community is a space created by the Commins as a tool to help military members grow in their personal relationships before, during, and after service.
Our mission is simple; bring happiness into the couples who deserve it the most, our Warrior-Spouse relationship. We provide an interactive online class, in person workshops, a yearly couples retreat (coming Summer of 2020), and are available as guest speakers.
