At VITAS we care for patients with an interdisciplinary team comprising a nurse, physician, aide, social worker, and chaplain. Other clinical professionals, from a music therapist to a trained volunteer, may work with the team to help meet the emotional and spiritual needs of the patient and their family. Our teams design personalized care plans to ensure comfort, dignity, and quality of life.

Most of the time, hospice care is brought to the patient at home, since home is where most seriously ill people want to be: in familiar surroundings with familiar routines and familiar faces.

Considering the end of life is not easy, whether you are planning for the future or coping with a serious illness right now. VITAS provides compassionate hospice care to patients with a life-limiting illness, and our palliative care team focuses on symptom management, pain relief, and quality-of-life issues for patients facing chronic, complex, or serious illnesses. Explore a range of supportive, VITAS-provided resources in more detail.

This is a joint Warrior/Family group.

Warrior Groups are fellowships for combat veterans and their families to share their experiences, testimonies of healing, compassion, and hope in overcoming the invisible wounds of war.

Warrior Family Support Groups exist to assist family members (spouse, parent, sibling, child, caretaker, etc.) of PTSD sufferers in understanding and healing.

Food is provided. Group members are encouraged to arrive no later than 6:30 PM so they may enjoy dinner.

This meeting is also available via Zoom. Meeting ID: 381-938-0960. Password: 5KDzVR. Call 210.248.9784 or 830.708.7385 if you need assistance accessing via Zoom.

This is not a treatment program, but rather a peer coaching and support program whose primary purpose is helping combat veterans find healing, balance, and positive re-integration with their families and in society.

Participants are required to be military combat Veterans or family members of those who have served in combat and be willing to face the challenges of managing post-traumatic stress and related conditions.

Every year, WWP reaches out to veterans, caregivers, and family support members to check in, provide updated information on programs and services, and let them know that WWP is here whenever they need us. You can also expect a weekly email informing you of upcoming events in your area and twice a year you will receive the AAR magazine.

To be eligible for this program you must be a Veteran or service member who incurred a physical or mental injury, illness, or wound while serving in the military on or after September 11, 2001, or their family member or caregiver.

With 113,000 registered warriors, we’ve developed a large network of people like you. Yet, 52% of warriors say they don’t have close personal relationships with others.

That’s why we offer peer-led groups and events across the country; including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Guam.

Whether you’re looking for someone to talk to or someone to spur you on to achieve your goals, Peer Support is here for you.

Here’s how Safe Place works:

Step One – A young person enters a Safe Place and asks for help.

Step Two – The site employee finds a comfortable place for the youth to wait while they call the licensed Safe Place agency. For the greater San Antonio area that is Roy Maas Youth Alternatives (RMYA).

Step Three – An RMYA staff member will talk with the youth to get more information and explain that an SAPD officer can escort them to the RMYA Bridge Emergency shelter.  If the child is agreeable, the RMYA staff will contact SAPD to transport the youth to the shelter. 

Step Four – Once at the Bridge, direct-care staff and counselors meet with the youth and provide support. Agency staff ensures the youth and their families receive the help and professional services they need.

This program is for youth under the age of 18 in need of immediate help and safety.

Kolbe Prison Ministries of San Antonio (KPM SA) is a regional branch of the Texas-wide Kolbe Prison Ministries (KPM) Catholic organization (sometimes referred to as ‘Kolbe Missions’) founded several years ago in Fredericksburg. KPM SA ministers to incarcerated men and women in five Texas State prisons and jails near San Antonio, and other detention facilities in the Archdiocese of San Antonio.

We’ve found that offenders have a much greater chance of staying out of prison and making lasting changes in their lives if we help them to develop a strong faith and offer hope for a better way of living through the truth of the Catholic Church. Kolbe Prison Ministry volunteers are making up to three visits each week to the five state penitentiaries in the Archdiocese of San Antonio.

How to Support Kolbe Prison Ministries SA

There are several ways to help and support this life-changing ministry, including:

• Pray
